For every football game there is a team that is expected to win by a certain number of points. In betting parlance, this is called the spread. If point spreads are accurate, we would expect about half of all games played to result in the favored team winning (beating the spread) and about half of all games to result in the team favored to not beat the spread. The accompanying data represent the results of 45 randomly selected games where...

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...
