The odds in favor of winning a prize in the contest of the juice company which gives prizes to anyone finding specially marked caps is 3.2.
<h3>What is odds against?</h3>
In probability, the term odds against is the ratio of probability of non occurring a favorable event to the probability of occurring a favorable event. It can be given as,
Here, 
is the probability of not occurring a favorable event, and P(A) is the probability of occurring a favorable event.
A juice company gives the prizes to anyone finding specially marked caps on its juice bottles. The 4 bottles have winning cap in 20 bottles. Thus, the probability of winning is,
The probability of not winning is,
Thus, the odd against the winning is,
Thus, the odds in favor of winning a prize in the contest of the juice company which gives prizes to anyone finding specially marked caps is 3.2.

Answer:
a. p(orange) = 5/14
b. p(green) = 3/14
c. p(red) = 1/7
d. p(brown) = 2/7
e. p(brown or red) = 3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You have a 14 pencils. Two pencils are red, 5 pencils are orange, 3 pencils are green and 4 pencils are brown.
p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/(total number of pencils)
p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/14
a. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be orange?
p(orange) = 5/14
b. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be green?
p(green) = 3/14
c. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil will be red?
p(red) = 2/14 = 1/7
d. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be brown?
p(brown) = 4/14 = 2/7
e. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil
will be brown or red?
brown: 4
red: 2
brown or red: 4 + 2
p(brown or red) = 6/14 = 3/7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance from one score to another tends to increase, and a single score tends to provide a less accurate representation of the entire distribution.
Consider normal distribution it has increasing trend from -Inf to the mean. But has no probability at any point. But if you consider binomial distribution then you will get the information at any integer of its range, but not all values of real line. That is you will not have information on (0,1) so there you cannot comment for increment of that distribution.
