Question
Again, you play the game where Bianca rolls a die and wins if it shows a 1 or a 2, otherwise you win.
Out of 7 games, how many times does she have to win at least so that you would reject the null hypothesis (that the die is fair, results random) at the 5%-significance level?
You can look up numbers in the Binomial table, but remember that one number is not enough.
You can also use the Online Calculator, but then you need to convert the answer to percent.

- In a coin and die game, you roll a fair six-sided die and toss a coin. If you roll a 6 and toss a tails, you gain $110. Otherwise, you lose $10. If you were to play the game 45 times, how much money can you expect to gain or lose? Round the expected value for one game to the nearest cent. Enter an expected loss as a negative number.arrow_forwardA sample of 2500 patients were taken to assess a medical test. 40% of the sample had a positive test, 563 patients have the disease and tested negative, and 235 patients do not have the disease and tested positive. What is the probability someone has a positive test if it is known they do have the disease? (round your answer to 4 decimal places) What is the probability someone does not have the disease if their test is known to be negative?
