Why might Razis method not be a good way to estimate the probability? My team won 18 of their last 20 matches, so the probabilit

y that they will win their next match is 18/20 = 90%

Answer:

It is a really idealistic way to estimate probability.

It usually works well for random events where there is no restriction like:

"There are N elements in a set, the probability of randomly selecting any element is the same (so there is no restriction) meaning that for every single element, the probability is 1/N.

Now suppose that there are K elements (K < N) with a given characteristic, then the probability of randomly selecting one of the K elements out of the sett with N elements is equal to K times the probability of each element, this is:

P = K*(1/N) = K/N"

Then if a dice has 6 possible outputs, and we want to find the probability of getting a 3 or a 5, we need to find the quotient between the outcomes where we get a 3 or a 5 (2) and the total number of outcomes (6)

P = 2/6

Now let's go to the case in the problem:

We know that out of the last 20 games, your team won 18.

Then yes, your team won (18/20)*100% = 90% of their played games.

Does this mean tath the probability of winning the next game is 90%?

Well no, because this is not a random selection, there are a lot of other things needed to analyze, as the win rate of the other team (suppose that the other team won 14 of their last 20 games, then their win rate is (16/20)*100% = 70%

Does this mean that the probability where our team wins is 90%, and the probability of the enemy team winning is 70%?

Well no, this makes no sense at all, and this is why this method is not a good way to estimate probability in complex cases like this one.

What is the 44th decimal digit in the decimal representation of 1/11?
Alexus [3.1K]
The decimal representation of  1/11  is  0.090909...
The pair of digits '09' repeat forever.

If you start counting the digits after the decimal point,
the odd ones are all zero, and the even ones are all  9 .

So the 44th digit after the decimal point is  9 .

julia puts her stickers into arrays in an album. some of her stickers are animal stickers. there are a different number of stick
lina2011 [118]

The total number of stickers :

Page 1 : 28

Page 2 : 24

Page 3 : 72

Page 4 : 48

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

There are several properties in integer multiplication operations

  • 1. closed property

Multiplication between integers will produce integers too

  • 2. commutative property

a x b = b x a

  • 3. associative property

ax (bxc) = (axb) xc

  • 4. identity

ax1 = 1 x a = a

  • 5. distributive  property

* addition

ax (b + c) = axb + axc

* substraction

ax (b-c) = axb - axc

We can use facts to solve multiplication problems

for example :

6 x 7 = (5 x 7) + ( 1 x 7) = 42

we can break facts with 6 into  5s and 1s facts from multiplication above

julia puts her stickers into arrays in an album

From picture (attached) we can find the total number of stickers on each page with 1s,2s,3s and 5s facts

  • Page 1 : 4 x 7 = (2 x 7) + ( 2 x 7) = 14 + 14 = 28
  • Page 2 : 4 x 6 = (1 x 6) + (3 x 6) = 6 + 18 = 24
  • Page 3 : 8 x 9 = ( 3 x 9) + (5 x 9) = 27 + 45 = 72
  • Page 4 : 8 x 6 = (3 x 6) + (5 x 6) = 18 + 30 = 48
