Probability

The probability of a certain event is a number expressing the likelihood that a specific event will occur, expressed as the ratio of the number of actual occurrences to the number of possible occurrences. In mathematics, it is a measure of how often an event will happen and is the basis of statistics.

If you roll two fair dice what is the probability you will roll a sum of nine?

You can roll (3,6), (4,5), (5,4), or (6,3). So that's four possibilities out of 36. So 4/36 or 1/9.

While flipping a coin 100 times John gets 44 heads and 56 tails Enter the theoretical probability of getting a tail while flipping a perfectly balanced coin?

Every time you flip a coin it has a 50% chance of heads and a 50% chance of tails. Flipping a coin multiple times does not change that. Therefore the answer is 50%

What is the probability of rolling the same number when three number cubes are rolled?

The first roll doesn't matter for probability, it just sets the number to be rolled by the other two. So:

P(rolling the same number three times) = P(rolling a particular number)2 = (1/6)2 = 1/36

The standard error of the mean is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean?

a large number of samples of size 50 were selected at random from a normal population with mean and variance.The mean and standard error of the sampling distribution of the sample mean were obtain 2500 and 4 respectivly.Find the mean and varince of the population?

How many possible outcomes are in the sample space for the event first roll a die and then shoot a basket?

There is 2 outcomes for flipping the coin, and 6 outcomes for rolling the cube. The total outcomes for both are 2*6 = 12.

What is the z value for a normal distribution?

If a random variable X has a Normal distribution with mean m and standard deviation s, then

z = (X - m)/s

has a Standard Normal distribution. That is, Z has a Normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1.

Probabilities for a general Normal distribution are extremely difficult to obtain but values for the Standard Normal have been calculated numerically and are widely tabulated. The z-transformation is, therefore, used to evaluate probabilities for Normally distributed random variables.

A discrete distribution is usually the result of?

a. a measurement. b. a count.

c. a small sample. d. a small probability.

A six sided cube is rolled find the probability of P6?

A cube, by definition, must be 6 sided.

The probability of getting a 6, if it is a fair die, is 1/6.

What is 0.1 for a two tailed test?

The answer depends on the distribution under consideration.

Difference between a random variable and a probability distribution is?

A random variable is a variable that can take different values according to a process, at least part of which is random.

For a discrete random variable (RV), a probability distribution is a function that assigns, to each value of the RV, the probability that the RV takes that value.

The probability of a continuous RV taking any specificvalue is always 0 and the distribution is a density function such that the probability of the RV taking a value between x and y is the area under the distribution function between x and y.

How many possible outcomes for flipping 2 coins?

Assuming the coins are fair, two-sided coins, and landing on their sides is not an option, there are four possible outcomes if you consider coin a having a head and coin b having a tail being a different instance from coin a being a tail and coin be having a head. Here they are;

Coin A | Coin B

Heads | Tails

Heads | Heads

Tails....| Heads

Tails....| Tails

There is insufficient information in the question to properly answer it. Please restate the question.
