João claims he can read minds. His friend Pedro asked him to guess a number he was thinking of between 1 and 7 (inclusive). João

guessed Pedro's number correctly 4 out of 9 times.
Let's test the hypothesis that João cannot read minds and therefore has a chance of
1/7 of guessing the correct number each time versus the alternative that his chance is somehow greater.
The table below sums up the results of 1000 simulations, each simulating 9 guesses with a chance of 1/7 start fraction, 1, divided by, 7, end fraction of being correct.
According to the simulations, what is the probability of having 4 or more correct guesses out of ?




Let's agree that if the observed outcome has a probability less than 1\%1%1, percent under the tested hypothesis, we will reject the hypothesis.
What should we conclude regarding the hypothesis?

It can be deduced that the probability of having 4 or more correct guesses will be 0.0296.

<h3>How to calculate the probability</h3>

From the given information, the null hypothesis is p = 1/7 and the alternate hypothesis is p>1/7. In this case, the mind reader gets a 4 out of 9 chances.

In order to test the hypothesis, simulations for 10000 cases were run with a probability of the correct answer being 1/7.

In this case, the p-value is the probability of correct answers that are greater than 4, assuming the null hypothesis is true. Here the p-value is 0.0296.

Also, the significance level to reject the hypothesis is less than 0.01. Since p > 0.01, we then fail to reject the hypothesis. Therefore the null hypothesis stands and Joao is not a mind reader.

Which is equal to 8^-10/8^5 ?
makkiz [27]
8^{-10} can be converted into \frac{1}{ 8^{10} } , and applying this to 8^{-5} can see that

\frac{ \frac{1}{ 8^{10} } }{ \frac{1}{ 8^{5} } }

This gives us 

\frac{ 8^{5} }{ 8^{10} }  =  \frac{1}{ 8^{5} } = 8^{-5}

The bleachers at a football game are 7/8 full, and 1/2 of the fans in the bleachers are rooting for the home team. What fraction
Ulleksa [173]
The answer is 7/16 because if you turn the denominator into a bigger number so you can get the answer, it becomes 14/16 and half of that is 7/16.
