Suppose a person is thinking about entering a MarioKart competition at theirlocal videogame store. The competition costs 20 dollars to enter. The competition consists of 10 matches. The person knows that their chance of winning each match is 65% and that each match is independent of the others. The payout for the competition is: WIN ALL 10 Matches: 500 Dollar Prize WIN 9 Matches: 250 Dollar PrizeWIN 8 Matches: 50 Dollar Prize OTHERWISE: Nothing 1) Suppose that this person enters the competition 5 times.What is the probability they break even?(Hint: To break even they would need to win the $50 prize twice and lose the other three times. Use a modified binomial to calculate this probability.)

In 42 of the 66 years from 1950 through 2016 (in 2011 there was virtually no change), the S&P 500 finished higher after the first five days of trading. In 37 out of 42 years, the S&P 500 finished higher for the year. Is a good first week a good omen for the upcoming year? The following table gives the first-week and annual performance over this 66-year period. First week Higher Lower Total Higher 37 5 42 Lower 12 12 24 Total 49 17 66 -what is the probability that the S&P 500 finished higher for the year? -b) Given that the S&P finished higher after the first five days of trading, what is the probability that it finished higher for the year? -c) Are the two events "first week performance" and "annual performance" independent?
