Answer:

X = 'is the athlete injured' (X in {0,1})

Y = 'the athlete wins' (Y in {0,1})

P(Y=1|X=0) = 0.75

P(Y=1|X=1) = 0.15

P(Y=1) = 0.51

We are looking for P(X=1) - P(Y=1) = P(Y=1|X=0)*(1-P(X=1)) + P(Y=1|X=1)*P(X=1)

The above equation should provide you with the answer 0.4!

Is it true or false that a bbinomial can have a degree of zero?
Mumz [18]

No, because any real valued term with degree 0 would be a constant. All constants in an expression can be combined into single term. Therefore if the expression were of degree 0, all the terms would be constants and could be combined into a single term making the expression a monomial.
