Problem 12-07 (Algorithmic) Baseball's World Series is a maximum of seven games, with the winner being the first team to win four games. Assume that the Atlanta Braves and the Minnesota Twins are playing in the World Series and that the first two games are to be played in Atlanta, the next three games at the Twins' ballpark, and the last two games, if necessary, back in Atlanta. Taking into account the projected starting pitchers for each game and the...

Teams A and Bare in a seven-game playoff series; the team that wins four games is the team that wins the series. Assume that both teams are evenly matched (i.e., the probability of winning each game is 50/50). (1) Team A won the first two games. What is the probability that team B will win the series? (2) continue to assume that Team A has already won two games, but the teams are not evenly matched. Assume that B is...

5. The World Series determines the national championship team for Major League Baseball. In the World Series, two teams (A and B) play a series of games until one wins 4 games. Assume that the games are played independently and the probability that Team A wins is 0.40 and this does not change from game to game. Let the random variable X represent the total number of games required in a randomly selected World Series. The CDF for X is:...

Next weekend Team A plays a 5 game series against their nemesis Team D. Team A has a 65% chance of winning each game, independent of others. Let X denote the number of games that Team A wins in a 5 game series. 6 Use the PDF of X to find the expectation 4 = EX and variance Var(X). 7 Then use a formula from Ch 4.6 to quickly find these. 8 On average, how many games need to be...

5. One year, the A's play the B's in the World Series, a seven-game series of baseball games. The World Series winner is the team that wins at least four games.1 Suppose that all games are independent and for each game, the probability that the A's win is p (which is the same for each game.) We don't know the exact value of p, but it's estimated that in professional baseball, the better team wins between 50% and 70%...

Suppose that you’re watching the World Series. At the beginning of the Series, you believe that the Cubs are a better team than the Indians…. (Sorry, I must pause here. As an Indians’ fan, it hurts to write that.) Anyways, you believe that the probability that the Cubs will beat the Indians in a single game is at least 0.50. You decide to reject this hypothesis if the Cubs fail to win more than 2 games in the World Series....

Problem 4. Two hockey teams, A and B play a series of games, until one of the teams wins 4 games. Suppose team A has probability p of winning each game, and games are independent. Let X be the total number of games that are played (a) Find the probability mass function of X (b) What is the probability that team A wins the series conditioned on X-47 (c) What is the probability that team A wins the series conditioned...

Suppose two teams are playing a series of games, each of which is independent. Team A has probability p of winning each game, and team B has probability 1 − p of winning each game. The winner of the series is the first team to win two games. Find the expected number of games played; note that this will be a function of p. [Hint: Let Xbe the total number of games played in the series and first determine the...
