Every time Casey is at bat he has a 0.4 probability of getting on base (assume each at bat is an independent event, and that this probability never changes). In one week of baseball, he has twelve times at bat.
What is the variance of the number of times he will get on base in a week?
Every time Casey is at bat he has a 0.4 probability of getting on base (assume...
Every time Casey is at bat he has a 0.4 probability of getting on base (assume each at bat is an independent event, and that this probability never changes). In one week of baseball, he has twelve times at bat. What is the probability that he will get on base fewer than four times? [must be accurate to 4 decimal places]
Every time Casey is at bat he has a 0.2 probability of getting on base (assume each at bat is an independent event, and that this probability never changes). In one week of baseball, he has twelve times at bat. What is the expected number of times Casey will get on base?
A baseball player has a batting average (probability of getting on base per time at bat) of 0.215. Based on this: What is the probability that they will get on base more than 6 of the next 15 at bats?
Fill in the blanks. Suppose the probability of a baseball player getting a hit in an at bat is 0.2935. If the player bats 24 times during a week, his number of hits should be around __________, give or take __________. Assume each at bat is independent.
The probability that Casey, a softball player gets a hit during a single time at bat is 3/10. If she goes to bat 6 times in her next game, determine the probability to four decimal places a. That she gets at least 3 hits in the game. b. That she gets at most 4 hits in the game c. That she does not get a hit in the game. d. That she gets exactly 3 hits in the game
Suppose that the probability of a baseball player getting a hit in an at-bat is 0.2804. If the player has 33 at-bats during a week, what's the probability that he gets no more than 9 hits? Question 6 options: 1) 0.0768 2) 0.1536 3) 0.5493 4) 0.4507 5) 0.3957
A baseball player, Mickey, who bats 310 (or .310) gets an average of 3.1 hits in ten at bats. We will assume that each time Mickey bats he has a 0.31 probability of getting a hit. This means Mickeys at bats are independent from one another. If we also assume Mickey bats 5 times during a game and that x= the number of hits that Mickey gets then the following probability mass function, p(x), and cumulative distribution function F(x) are...
Rogers Hornsby has a lifetime batting average of 0.358. Assume that Rogers Hornsby came to bat officially six times every game played. What would be Rogers Hornsby's probability getting at least five hits in a game?
Willie Keeler has a lifetime batting average of 0.341. Assume that Willie Keeler came to bat officially six times every game played. What would be Willie Keeler's probability getting at least four hits in a game?
A baseball player is said to be having a hitting streak if he has gotten on base, by hitting the ball or walking, in a “large” number of consecutive times at bat. Suppose a batter has batted a large number of times during the season and that his batting average is 300; that is, he has hit 30% of his times at bat. How many hits must he get for you to consider this batter to have had an unusually...
