two players A and B agree to play until one of them wins a certain number of games. P(A wins a game)=p and P(B wins a game)=1-p=q. However, they are forced to quit when A still has a games to win and B still has b games to win. How should they divide their stance to be fair

Will play a two-player game, for which we say the numbers from 1 up to 25 in increasing order without skipping any number. One player can say one, two, three or four numbers per turn before the next player's turn which can do the same thing. The game continues and the one who say the number "25" loses the game.

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
