Problem #2: Suppose an ice cream shop starts a promotion from 2-4p on Wednesdays using two sets of numbered cards. Customers get to draw 2 cards (at random), one from each set. Each set has 8 cards numbered 0, 1, 2, ... 7. The customer will receive a discount based on the combination of cards drawn which is equal to the fırst card, followed by the second card. For example, if a customer draws a 7 and a 7, s/he gets an 77% discount. If a customer draws a 1 and 7, s/he gets a 17% discount. If the cards are 0, 0 the customer gets no discount. a. Describe the random process. b. How many outcomes are in the sample space? c. Are the sample space outcomes equally likely? Why or why not?

Contingency Table

A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.

Binomial Distribution

Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

Problem #2: Suppose an ice cream shop starts a promotion from 2-4p on Wednesdays using two sets of
numbered cards. Customers get to draw 2 cards (at random), one from each set. Each set has 8 cards numbered
0, 1, 2, ... 7. The customer will receive a discount based on the combination of cards drawn which is equal to the
fırst card, followed by the second card. For example, if a customer draws a 7 and a 7, s/he gets an 77% discount.
If a customer draws a 1 and 7, s/he gets a 17% discount. If the cards are 0, 0 the customer gets no discount.
a. Describe the random process.
b. How many outcomes are in the sample space?
c. Are the sample space outcomes equally likely? Why or why not?
d. Write out the sample space. (Just kidding.) Determine the probability a customer at least a 12%
e. Determine the probability a customer gets more than a 75% discount on his/her ice cream.

Mr Hail, Miss rain and Mrs Snow all apply for a job as a park keeper. Whichever one gets the job will have to open the gates of the park at 5.30 am. If Mr Hail gets the job, he will only open the gates on time 50% of the time. If Miss rain gets the job she will only open the gates on time 40% of the time. If Mrs Snow gets the job she will always open the gates on time. Assume that Mr hail has a 40 % chance of getting the job, and that Miss rain and Miss Snow each have a 30 % chance of getting the job.

Let's say you have a weird relationship with a friend, where each week each of you can choose to either be a bad friend or a good friend. Then, each of you will get some amount of happiness according to the following table: You're a bad friend You're a good friend Your friend is a bad friend You get 5 happiness You get 10 happiness Your friend is a good friend You get +10 happiness You get +5 happiness 1. How would you choose whether to be a good or bad friend each week to maximize your happiness? What sort of strategy might you choose? Does it depend on what your friend chooses? We'd highly recommend looking at evolution of trust for some ideas on possible strategies. Note that you can change what you choose for different weeks.
A shoe company wants to determine if the new tread on its top line of running shoes lasts longer than the original tread. The company recruits 50 runners for a study. Each runner will perform their typical workout wearing one shoe with the original tread on one foot and another shoe with the new tread on the other foot. The foot that wears the new type of tread will be decided by flipping a coin. After one month, the runner will wear the new type of tread on the opposite foot. At the end of the second month, the difference in tread wear (New - Original) will be calculated. What type of sampling is described in this study? What is the appropriate inference procedure? one-sample t-test for μ one-sample z-test for p one-sample t-test for diff two-sample t-test for new original
9. In a batting cage, a young future slugger is swinging for the cheap seats-counting the number of pitches from one "home run" (in her mind) to the next: for instance, if she counts 4, it means it took her 4 pitches to get her first home run after she hit the last one. For 20 independent "home runs," her counts were: 3, 6, 2, 16, 12, 4, 4, 5, 15, 11, 3, 3, 2, 1, 8, 11, 5, 1, 2, 1. Assuming that these data can be looked upon as a random sample from a geometric population, a) Derive the maximum likelihood estimator for the geometric distribution's parameter 0. b) Estimate the parameter for the population the given sample was drawn from. Interpret your result (this interpretation should include what the pertinent population is for this problem; what, then, the parameter would represent, etc.)
