Say you have a spinner when with 10 different sections (all equally sized and numbered 1-10). If you plan to spin the wheel 20 times and will count the number 3 as a success.
a) What is the probability of getting the number 3 in one spin (probability of Success)?
b) Assuming this fits the criteria for a binomial distribution, what would be the expected value (mean) be?
c) What would the standard deviation be?
Homework Answers
a) P(getting number 3) = 1/10 = 0.1
b) n = 20
p = 0.1
Expected value = n * p = 20 * 0.1 = 2
c) Standard deviation = sqrt(n * p * (1 - p)) = sqrt(20 * 0.1 * 0.9) = 1.34

Problem 1: Game Spinner We will be comparing empirical (relative frequencies based on an observation of a real-life process) to theoretical (long-run relative frequency) probabilities. We will use StatCrunch to simulate this process using a board game spinner three times so that we can determine the total number of spaces moved in three turns. The board game spinner looks like the image below. The spinner is equally likely to land on any given section. f) Calculate the theoretical probability of...

You are experimenting with spinning a fair spinner with 8 numbered spaces and you spin a 1,2,3 or 4 on the first several spins. So, you let x be a random variable that represents the number of 1’s through 4’s that have been spun prior to the first 5 through 8 spins. Draw a histogram of the distribution of P(x) for up to ten spins. If you spin the spinner 3 times and the first 2 spins are 1 through...

I was wondering if you could help me better understand this Statistic problem about a spinner? I feel as though I am not setting the problem up right. Would I use binomial distribution? Here is the problem: A spinner is spun 16 times. (picture a spinner with four parts numbered 1, 2, 3 & 4) (a) What is the probability of spinning fewer than four three's? (b) What is the mean of the distribution? (c) what is the standard deviation?...
A dartboard has 10 equally sized slices numbered from 1 to 10.
A dartboard has 10 equally sized slices numbered from 1 to 10. Some are grey and some are white. The slices numbered 1, 7, and 9 are grey. The slices numbered 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 are white. A dart is tossed and lands on a slice at random. Let X be the event that the dart lands on a grey slice, and let P(X) be the 7 probability of X Let not X be the event that the dart lands on a...

A roulette wheel has 38 slots, numbered 0 , 00 , and 1 to 36 . The slots 0 and 00 are colored green, 18 of the others are red, and 18 are black. The dealer spins the wheel and, at the same time, rolls a small ball along the wheel in the opposite direction. The wheel is carefully balanced so that the ball is equally likely to land in any slot when the wheel slows. Gamblers can bet on...
