You and a friend are playing a best-of-three series (first to win 2 games wins the series). You are a stronger player and have a

0.68 chance of winning each game. Both you and your friend play better after winning a game. If you win a game, your chance of winning the next game is 0.81. If your friend wins a game, the chance they win the next game is 0.73. What is the probability you win the series

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Given that probability of you winning each game = 0.68

And probability of you winning next game = 0.81

Your friend's chance of winning/you losing would be = 1-0.68= 0.32

also his chance of winning next game = 0.73

To find probability that you would win the series given that you need to win two games to win the series

= probability that you win first game and second game+ probability that you win first game, lose second game and win third game + probability that you lose first game, win second game and win third game

= 0.68*0.81+0.68*0.32*0.68+0.32*0.68*0.81

=0.8750

Therefore probability that you would win the series = 0.8750

Note: here we found the probability of winning by adding(or) up the three possible combinations that would result in a win

Answer:

x = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>To solve for 'x', isolate it</u>. This means to keep 'x' on one side of the equal sign, while moving the other numbers to the other side. The numbers on the other side will tell you what 'x' equals to.

<u>When 'moving' a number to the other side, you cancel it out where it originally is by doing reverse operations</u>. (Reverse operation pairs are addition/subtraction and division/multiplication). To keep an equation balanced, <u>what you do to one side you have to do to the other</u>.

\frac{3}{8}x-17=10        Keep 'x' on the left and move everything over.

\frac{3}{8}x-17+17=10+17        Add 17 to both sides. "-17" cancels out on the left.

\frac{3}{8}x=27        Simplified right side

\frac{3}{8}x/\frac{3}{8}=27/\frac{3}{8}        Because 3/8 originally multiplies with 'x', do the reverse: divide both sides by 3/8.

x=27/\frac{3}{8}        To divide a fraction, change to multiplication and flip the fraction's top and bottom numbers.

x=27*\frac{8}{3}        Combine the factors into one fraction.

x=\frac{27*8}{3}        Multiply 27 by 8 in the numerator.

x=\frac{216}{3}        Simplify the fraction by dividing top by bottom.

x=72        Final answer, solved for 'x'
