The state |\u03c8\u27e9 is represented as a complex vector, and the expectation value is computed using the appropriate formula for spin operators. The goal is to find \u27e8S_z\u27e9, which in this case is determined to be 3\u0127/10, indicating the average measurement outcome of the spin along the z-direction for the particle."}
