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

Miguel buys 100 feet of fence to enclose a rectangular area of his backyard so his dog can run freely. What is the maximum area,
sdas [7]
Suppose the length of the triangle is x, if the perimeter of the rectangle is 100 ft, the width of the rectangle will be (50-x) ft.
Area of rectangle will be:
A=length*width
A=x(50-x)
A=50x-x^2
at maximum area, dA/dx=0
thus
dA/dx=50-2x=0
solving for x we get
2x=50
x=25
thus for maximum area length=25 ft
the size of the width will be
50-x=50-25=25 ft
thus the maximum area will be:
25*25=625 sq. feet

What is the level of measurement for each of the following variables? a. Distance students travel to class b. A classification o
Lunna [17]

Answer/Explanation:

There are basically 4 main levels of measurement or scales of measurement. They are:

1. Nominal scale: this deals with variables that are categorised, and numbers o i.e.r alphabets assigned are just for the sake of naming, and as such has no numeric value.

2. Ordinal scale: this scale is only used to show order or ranking if variables.

3. Interval scale: in this type of scale, numbers that are ordered have meaningful divisions.

4. Ratio scale: this can be like to interval scale, in that, the ordered numbers have meanings. However, unlike the interval scale, when zero is used, meaningful deductions can be made as zero is meaningful.

Therefore, level of measurement for the variables given in the question are as follows:

a. Distance students travel to class: ratio scale. I.e. zero in this scale is meaningful and would mean no distance was travelled

b. A classification of students by the state of birth: nominal scale, i.e. this only serves the purpose of categorization. The scale here has no numeric value,

c. A classification of students by ethnicity: nominal scale

d. A classification of workers by industry: nominal scale

e. Selling price of the Statistics textbook: ratio scale

f. Student IQ ratings: interval scale, i.e., zero in this scale is not meaningful.
