Suppose you toss a fair coin 10,000 times. Should you expect to get exactly 5000 heads? Why or why not?
You shouldn't expect to get exactly 5000 heads, because you cannot predict precisely how many heads will occur. The proporation of heads should approach 0.5 as the number of tosses increases (LLN).
What is the probability of drawing either a Diamond or a five from a standard 52-card deck?
Overlapping, OR, (13/52)+(4/52)-(1/52) = 16/52 = 4/13
What is the probability that you randomly select a pink starburst (the superior flavor) from a bag of starbursts that consists of 20 pink, 15 red, 22 yellow, and 11 orange?
20/68 = 5/17
You are given 6 to 1 odds against tossing three tails with three coins, meaning you win $6 if you succeed and you lose $1 if you fail. Find the expected value of the game. How much money would you expect to win/lose in 100 games?
(-1)(7/8) + 6(1/8) = -.125
Lose $12.5
