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

André solves the following system of equations by elimination.
Vaselesa [24]
Although the question is incomplete, I have seen it before.

The equations are:
3a + 6b = 12
-3a + 6b = -12

Adding the equations, we get:

12b = 0
And b = 0

Determine the arithmetic sequence if the fourth term is negative six and the eleventh term is negative thirty four
ICE Princess25 [194]
An arithmetic sequence takes the form

a_n=a_{n-1}+d

where d is the common difference between terms. You can solve for a_n in terms of any of the previous terms of the sequence:

a_n=a_{n-1}+d\implies~a_n=a_{n-2}+2d\implies~a_n=a_{n-3}+3d\implies\cdots\implies~a_n=a_{n-k}+kd

for some integer 1\le k\le n-1

Continuing in this way, you know that the sequence can be defined explicitly in terms of the first term a_1

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Given that the 4th term is a_4=-6 and the 11th term is a_{11}=-34, you have the following system of equations.

\begin{cases}-6=a_1+(4-1)d\\-34=a_1+(11-1)d\end{cases}

Solving this system for the two unknowns yields a_1=6 and d=-4.

So, the sequence is given explicitly by

a_n=6+(n-1)(-4)=-4n+5
