Before 2012 NFL football games that were tied at the end of regulation time continued after a coin toss. The team that won the coin toss could choose to receive the ball or kick the ball. A whopping 98.1% of teams that won the coin toss chose to receive the ball period between 1974 and 2011 there were 460 overtime games that did not end in a tie. Among those 460 games that decided were in overtime 252 were won by the same team that won the overtime toss. Assume that wins and losses are equally likely so bowl teams have the same 0.5 chance of winning the game in overtime.
a. Find the mean and standard deviation for the number of wins in groups of 460 games

15. At the start of overtime in a National Football League game, a coin is flipped to determine which team wil kick off and which will receive. The question of interest is how much advantage (if any) is given to the team that wins the coin flip at the start of the sudden death overtime period. In the overtime games played between 1974 and 2009, the winner of the coin flip won the game in 240 of the 428 games...
In 431 NFL football games that went to overtime, the teams that won the coin toss went on to win 235 of those games. If the coin-toss method is fair, we expect that the teams winning the coin would win about 50% of the games, so we expect about 215.5 wins in 431 overtime games. Assuming that there is a0.5 probability of winning a game after winning the coin toss, find the probability of getting at least 235 winning games...

(Please provide 1. Ho and Ha, 2. The p-value or test-statistic, 3. the decision, (fail to reject or reject), 4. The conclusion (does the data support claim?) 1. In a recent study 5000 surveys were sent out and 717 were returned. Use a .01 significance level to test the claim that the return rate is LESS than 15%. 2. In football among 460 overtime games 252 were won by the team that won the coin toss. Test the claim that...
2. Consider penalty shoot-outs in soccer that happen when the score is tied after the regulation playing time has expired (Let's call this state "tie"). Suppose that there two teams (Team A and Team B), and rounds of one kick per team, until the tie is broken (that is, starting from a tied score, there is a round of one penalty kick per team. If Team A scores, but team B doesn't, then Team A wins the game. But if...

3. In a National Football League (NFL) regular season, each team plays 16 games. Let " wins" be the number of regular season wins by a team in a particular season (taking a tie as half a win.) Since on average teams win half their games, the distribution of team wins has mean 8. Assume the distribution of team wins stays about the same from year to year. There is a positive correlation between a team's wins one year and...
The 1958 NFL Championship football game is known as the greatest game ever played. In that game, two teams faced off and played with such commitment, drive, and tenacity that it changed the trajectory of football in America. In this game, the Baltimore Colts faced off against the New York Giants in a rematch of the only game the Colts lost that season. The Colts coach Weeb Ewbank knew that in order to win, he was going to have to...
