Recall that an American Roulette wheel has 38 possible outcomes, 18 black, 18 red and 2 green. The numbers go from 1 to 36, and

the green outcomes are numbered 0 and 00. Someone places 10 bets on "1st 12", that is, that person wins if the outcome is any number between 1 and 12, included. 1. (2pts) What is the probability of losing a ’1st 12’ bet on a single spin? 2. (3pts) What is the probability of winning 7 out of the 10 total bets?

Answer:

American Roulette

1. The probability of losing a  ’1st 12’ bet on a single spin is:

= 0.67

2. The probability of winning 7 out of the 10 total bets is:

= 0.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible outcomes in an American Roulette wheel = 38

Make-up of the outcomes = 18 black, 18 red and 2 green

Green outcomes are numbered 0 and 00

Number of wins for this person = 12

Probability of winning = 0.33  (12/36)

Number of possible losses for this person = 24

Probability of losing = 0.67 (24/36)

1. The probability of losing a  '1st 12' bet on a single spin is:

= (36 - 12)/36

= 0.67

2. The probability of winning 7 out of the 10 total bets is:

Probability of winning = 12/36 * 7/10

= 0.23

Answer:

3.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Payout(X) : ___ 0 ___ 4 ___ 6 ____ 8 _____ 10

Probability (p(x) 0.5 _ 0.2 __0.15 __0.1 ___ 0.05

Expected value :E(X) = ΣX* p(x)

E(X) = (0*0.5) + (4*0.2) + (6*0.15) + (8*0.1) + (10*0.05)

E(X) = 3

Expected value = 3.00

A survey of 85 families showed that 36 owned at least one DVD player. Find the 99% confidence interval estimate of the true prop
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

0.424 - 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.286

0.424 + 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.562

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.286;0.562)

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given:

X= 36 represent the families owned at least one DVD player

n= 85 represent the total number of families

\hat p=\frac{36}{85}= 0.424 represent the estimated proportion of families owned at least one DVD player

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.05. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-2.58, z_{1-\alpha/2}=2.58

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}

If we replace the values obtained we got:

0.424 - 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.286

0.424 + 2.58\sqrt{\frac{0.424(1-0.424)}{85}}=0.562

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (0.286;0.562)
