Answer:
a. The probability that the Atlanta Braves win the World Series is 0.42
b. The average number of games played regardless of winner is 13.07
Explanation:
A) What is the probability that the Atlanta Braves win the World Series?
P (That the Atlanta Braves win the World Series)
P(X = 2)
= 0.42
B) What is the average number of games played regardless of winner?
[tex]E (X) = \Sigma x p(x)[/tex]
= (1×0.45) + (2×0.42) + (3×0.46) + (4×0.5) + (5×0.46) + (6×0.41) + (7×0.52)
= 0.45 + 0.84 + 1.38 + 2 + 2.3 + 2.46 + 3.64
= 13.07
