You consider yourself a bit of an expert at playing rock-paper-scissors and estimate that the probability that you win any given

game is 0.5. In a tournament that consists of playing 60 games of rock-paper-scissors let X be the random variable that is the of number games won. Assume that the probability of winning a game is independent of the results of previous games. You should use the normal approximation to the binomial to calculate the following probabilities. Give your answers as decimals to 4 decimal places. a)Find the probability that you win at least 35 of the games. P(X ≥ 35) =b)Find the probability that you win less than 27 games. P(X < 27) =c)Find the probability that you win between 30 and 40 games. P(30 ≤ X ≤ 40) =

Answer:

a) 0.37

b) 0.421

c) 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probability of winning a game is binomial (P = 0.5) the expected value for number of winning when you play 60 games is

\mu = 60*0.5 = 30

And the standard deviation:

\sigma = 60*0.5*0.5 = 15

a) the cumulative probability of winning at least 35 games is

P(X \geq 35) = 1 - P(X < 35) = 1 - 0.631 = 0.37

b)P(X < 27) = 0.421

c)P(30 \leq X \leq 40) = P(X \leq 40) - P(X \leq 30) = 0.75 - 0.5 = 0.25

Mina tosses two number cubes labeled 1 to 6. What is the probability that the sum is equal to five?
coldgirl [10]

(1,4)

(4,1)

(2,3)

(3,2)

so there are 4 different combinations that equal 5

 6 x 6 = 36 total possible outcomes of the dice

so they have a 4/36 reduces to 1/9 probability of equaling 5

27 + (8-5) -am looking for the answer of number 7
Rasek [7]

Answer:

The answer to the equation from question 7 is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

In question 7, we are given an equation.

2³ + (8 - 5)² - 3

First, subtract 5 from 8 in the parentheses.

2³ + 3² - 3

Next, solve the exponents for 2³ and 3².

8 + 9 - 3

Add 8 to 9.

17 - 3

Subtract 3 from 17.

14

So, the answer to this equation from question 7 is 14.
