Probabilities and Counting. Yahtzee is a game that involves six fair dice. When rolling all six dice, what is the probability that at least two of them will show the same number?
Homework Answers
P(at least two of them will show the same number) =1-P(all different)
= 1- (6!/(6^6))
=319/324 = 0.984568

Exercise 12.22. Yahtzee. In a dice game, a "Yahtzee" is a result in which all five dice within a round have the same value. To simplify this problem, assume that the five dice are just rolled one time per round. (In the actual Yahtzee game, dice can be re-rolled.) Let X be the number of times that a player gets a Yahtzee in three separate rounds. Find the variance of X

In a certain board game, a player rolls two fair six-sided dice until the player rolls doubles (where the value on each die is the same). The probability of rolling doubles with one roll of two fair six-sided dice is 16

In Yahtzee, five dice are rolled, then any number of those may be rerolled, and finally, any of the dice may be rolled in a third round. The highest scoring result is having all five dice show the same number, called a Yahtzee, and for style points you want your Yahtzee to be all sixes. What is the probability of getting an all six-Yahtzee?

Bob and Doug are playing the following game. Bob starts by rolling two fair dice; if the sum of his dice is six, then he wins the game. If not, then Doug rolls the dice, and if the sum of his rolls is seven, then he wins the game. If neither player wins the game during the first round, then they repeat the process (with Bob going first) until someone wins a round. What is the probability that Bob wins...

2. "Craps" is a game played by rolling two fair dice. To play one round of this game, the player rolls the dice and the outcome is determined by the following rules: If the total number of dots is 7 or 11 (a "natural"), then the player wins. If the total number of dots is 2, 3, or 12 C'craps"), then the player loses. If the total number of dots is 4, 5, 6,8,9, or 10, then this number is...

In the game of "Craps", a roller plays by rolling two six-sided dice. The score for each roll is the sum of the two dice. A roller can win on the first roll by rolling either a sum or 7 or 11. The probability of this occurring can be found using the sample space to be 0.2222. This probability (0.2222) is an example of what type of probability? O Theoretical Probability O Empirical Probability O Sample Probability There is not...

A gambler has observed from experience that the probability of at least one six when rolling a fair die four times is slightly larger than the probability of at least one double six when rolling two fair dice 24 times. Do you agree? A clear explanation will be greatly appreciated.

In the game of Yahtzee®, players roll five dice simultaneously to try to make certain combinations. In a single turn, a player may roll up to three total times. On the first roll, the player rolls all five dice. On subsequent rolls, the player may choose to roll any number of the five dice ("keeping" dice by leaving selected unrolled dice on the table). If a player's first roll results in exactly three 5's (e.g., 2-5-5-3-5), what is the probability...
