Suppose that two teams are playing a series of games each of which is independently won by team A with probability p and by team B with probability 1-p. The winner of the series is the first team to win i games. (a) If i 4, find the probability that a total of 7 games are played. (b) Find the expected number of games that are played when i 3.

2. Are the teams that play in the World Series evenly matched? To win a World Series, a team must win four games. If the teams are evenly matched, we would expect the number of games played in the World Series to follow the distribution shown in the first two columns of the following table. The third column represents the actual number of games played in each World Series from 1930 to 2014. Do the data support the distribution that...

Suppose two teams are playing a series of games, each of which is independent. Team A has probability p of winning each game, and team B has probability 1 − p of winning each game. The winner of the series is the first team to win two games. Find the expected number of games played; note that this will be a function of p. [Hint: Let Xbe the total number of games played in the series and first determine the...

Two teams are playing a series of soccer games, each of which is independent. Team 1 has probability p of winning each game, and team 2 has probability 1 − p of winning each game. The winner of the series is the first team to win two soccer games. Find the expected number of games played. This will be a function of p. Let Y be the total number of soccer games played in the series and first determine the...

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...
