... bet on red, the probability of winning is 18/38 = .4737. The probability .4737 represents (A) nothing important, since every spin of the wheel results in one of three outcomes (red, black, or green). (B) the proportion of times this event will occur in a very long series of individual bets on red. ( ...

A travel agent suggests that since the “Law of Averages” makes it highly unlikely to have two plane crashes within a few weeks of each other, flying soon after a crash is the safest time to fly. What do you think? Explain. a. This statem ...

Using Card Games for Conditional Probability, Explaining Gamma
... Ultimately, their probability difference must be settled by card experiments. Randomly obtaining 4 hearts in a simultaneous draw of 5 cards would be exceedingly rare, so this card experiment is ideal for a class assignment. A group of 3 students can run one card experiment and having 30 such groups ...

Also, assume that the result of play in the first half does not influence play in the second half; that is, teams don’t play harder because they’re behind, or give up because they’re behind. Given that a team is ...
