Question

During the 2014 season, the Los Angeles Dodgers won 58% of their games. Assuming that the outcomes of the baseball games are independent and that the percentage of wins this season will be the same as in 2014: What is the probability that the Dodgers will win at least one of their next seven games

Answer 1

Answer: 0.98

Explanation:

given data:

probability they won a game = 58% = 0.58

since outcome of games are independent, and percentage would remain same as 2014.

probablility that Dodgers wins atleast 1 of their next 7 games

= 1 - p

= 1 - ( 0.58 )^ 7

= 1 - 0.02208

= 0.98

probabikotun that Dodgers would win one of their next seven games is 0.98
