Suppose that Stephen makes 95% of his free throws. Assume that late in a basketball game, he is fouled and is awarded two shots. (a) What is the probability that he will make both shots? (b) What is the probability that he will make at least one shot? (c) What is the probability that he will miss both shots? (d) Late in a basketball game, a team often intentionally fouls an opposing player in order to stop the game clock. The usual strategy is to intentionally foul the other team's worst free- throw shooter. Assume that Stephen's team's center makes 57% of his free-throw shots. Calculate the probabilities for the center as shown in parts (a), (b), and (c). Assume as in parts (a), (b), and (c) that two shots will be awarded. P(center makes two shots) = P(center makes at least one shot) = P(center misses both shots) =

A group of botanists is studying the distribution of carnations in a field. The field is divided into a number of equal sized squares. The mean number of carnations per square is assumed to be 3. The carnations are distributed randomly throughout the field. Find the probability that: (b) (i) there will be more than two carnations. (ii) either five or six carnations.

Suppose we have a bucket of 20 balls with 10 red and 10 green. We take 5 draws and after each draw, we remove the chosen ball from the bucket before our next draw (this is called drawing without replacement). Can we use the binomial distribution to model this scenario? Why or why not?
