If A and B are playing tennis and the score is 30-30, what is the chance that A wins the game? Assume on any given point, A has a 0.7 chance of winning the point (and B 0.3)
4 antwoorden↳
84.5 % (sum of 0.49x(0.42)^n)
↳
The way I approached it was as follows: Starting from the initial state, one player has to win 2 points in a row to win. If that does not happen, we're back to the initial state. Therefore, P(A) = 0.49, P(B) = 0.09, P(repeating) = 1 - P(A) - P(B) = 0.42 I enjoy using the intuition that A is 49/9 more likely to win and then find the probabilities by dividing both by 0.42 (making 49 and 9 add up to 100 while preserving their proportions).

Shouldn't it be 0.7?
Given two die, what is the probability that the sum when rolled would add up to six?
4 antwoorden↳
5/36
↳
5/36 is right.... Combinations that add up to six: 1 and 5, 2 and 4, 3 and 3, 4 and 2, 5 and 1. So we have 5 successes. There are 36 individual outcomes because there are 6 sides on each die and 6*6 = 36 So we have 5/36. Minder

100 pennies in a jar. 1 penny has 'heads' on both sides. You pick a penny out of the jar and give it to your friend (without looking at the penny). Your friend flips the penny in the air and gets 7 heads in a row. Which penny do you have? Why?
3 antwoorden↳
Chance of 1 Heads = .5 Chance of 7 heads in a row = (.5)^7 to do this in your head think of fractions... (1/2)^7 = (1/2*1/2=1/4, * 1/2=1/8, * 1/2 = 1/16....if you do it seven times you get 1/128. so you have a better chance to pick out the penny with two heads (1/100) than to get 7 heads in a row (1/128) Minder
↳
99 times out of 100 you take the normal penny. prob that normal penny give 7 heads in a row is 1/128. so, prob that he has special penny is 1/100 / (1/100 + 0.99*1/128) = 56.2% Minder
↳
~56.4% that you have the 2-headed penny.
