In a ongoing World Chess Championship, there’s a 16% chance that Tom will win the next game, and a 13% chance that Jeff will win the the next game. Whats the probability that the next will result in a draw? (In chess one of the two players wins or there is a draw- there are no more possibilities)
Homework Answers
P(Tom win) = 0.16
P(Jeff win) = 0.13
Total Probability = 1
i.e.,
P(Tom win) + P(Jeff win) + P(Draw) = 1
Substituting, we get:
0.16 + 0.13 +P(Draw) = 1
So,
P(Draw) = 1- 0.29 = 0.71
So,
Answer is:
0.71

Two individuals, A and B, are finalists for a chess championship. They will play a sequence of games, each of which can result in a win for A, a win for B, or a draw. Suppose that the outcomes of successive games are independent, with P(A wins game) = 0.3, P(B wins game) = 0.2, and P(draw) = 0.5. Each time a player wins a game, he earns 1 point and his opponent earns no points. The...

Chess Tournament Two people are engaged in a chess tournament. Each starts with two playing chips. After each game, the loser must give the winner one chip. Player 2 is more advanced than Player 1 and has a 70% chance of winning each game. The tournament is over when one player obtains all four chips. What is the probability that Player 1 will win the tournament?

Problem 3. In the game of tennis, the first player to win four points wins the game as long as the winner's total is at least two points more than the opponent. Thus if the game is tied at 3-3(Deuce"), then the game is not decided by the next point, but must go on until one player has two points more than the opponent's score. Assume that the server has a constant probability p of winning each point, independently of...
