Problem 16-07 (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 are playing the Minnesota Twins 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 home...
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...

In a World Series, teams A and B play until one team wins four games. Suppose all games are independent, and that on each game, the probability that team A beats team B is 2/3. a. What is the probability that team A wins the series in four games? b. What is the probability that team A wins the series, given team B won games 1 and 2?
the NBA final is a seven game series, and the team that wins four games Chap. 2 Review of Probability 2.70 The NBA final is a seven-game series, and the team that wins four games first wins the series. Denote by p the probability that the Eastern Conference team wins a game and by q = 1- p the probability that the Western Conference team wins a game. Assume that these probabilities remain constant from game to game and that...
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 5 The World Series is a seven-game series that terminates as soon as cither team wins four games. Let X b Series between teams and B; possible valus of X, for example, are AAAA and ABABABB. Assume that the games are independent and the teams are equally matched. Let Y be the nuber of games until the match ends. Find the PMF, py( for Y. e the random variable that represents the outcome of a Worl
A and B play a series of games. Each game is independently won by A with probability p and by B with probability 1−p. They stop when the total number of wins of one of the players is two greater than that of the other player. The player with the grater number of total wins is declared the winner of the series. Find the probability that a total of 4 games are played. Please explain as much as possible.
i need help ASAP thanks 2. Two team (A and B) play a series of baseball games. The team who wins three games of five-game-series wins the series. Consider A has home-field advantage (0.7 means A has probability of winning 0.7 if it plays in its field) and opponent-field disadvantage (0.2 means A has probability of winning 0.2 if it plays in opponents field). If the series start on A team's field and played alternately between A and B team's...
Question 2 (26 points) In an NBA (National Basketball Association) series, the team that wins four games out of seven is the winner and it will win the big prize. Suppose that teams A and B face each other in the games and that team A has probability 0.4 of winning a game over team B. a) (13 points) Compute the probability that team A wins the big prize at (just after) the 6"game. b) (13 points) Compute the probability...
