11. Suppose we are interested in bidding on a piece of land and we know one other bidder is interested. The seller announced that the highest bid in excess of $12,000 will be accepted. Assume that the competitor’s bid x is a random variable that is uniformly distributed between $12,000 and $17,000.
a. Suppose you bid $13,000. What is the probability that your bid will be accepted?
b. Suppose you bid $16,000. What is the probability that your bid will be accepted?
c. What amount should you bid to maximize the probability that you get the property?
d. Suppose you know someone who is willing to pay you $18,000 for the property. Would you consider bidding less than the amount in part (c)? Why or why not?

The mean cost of domestic airfares in the United States rose to an all-time high of $375 per ticket. Airfares were based on the total ticket value, which consisted of the price charged by the airlines plus any additional taxes and fees. Assume domestic airfares are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $115. Use Table 1 in Appendix B.
a. What is the probability that a domestic airfare is $540 or more (to 4 decimals)?
b. What is the probability that a domestic airfare is $255 or less (to 4 decimals)?
c. What if the probability that a domestic airfare is between $310 and $500 (to 4 decimals)?
d. What is the cost for the 5% highest domestic airfares? (rounded to nearest dollar) (X) $ or (more/less)

A sample of 16 Triple-A minor league baseball teams were selected for statistical analysis. The following data show the average attendance for the 16 teams selected. Also shown are the teams’ records; W denotes the number of games won, L denotes the number of games lost, and PCT is the proportion of games played that were won. Additionally, each teams’ major league association was given. The data are contained in the file named AAA.

This question is about providing game logic for the game of craps
we developed its shell in class. At the end of the game, you should
ask the user if wants to play another game, if so, make it happen.
Otherwise, quit
**Provide the working output of this game and the picture of the output. **
This is an implementation of the famous 'Game of Chance'
called 'craps'.
It is a dice game. A player rolls 2 dice. Each die has six faces:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Based on the values on the dice, we play the game until a player
wins or loses.
You add the values of the dice's face.
1) If the sum is 7 or 11 on the first roll, the player wins.
2) If the sum is 2, 3, or 12 on the first roll, the player loses (
or the 'house' wins)
3) If the sum is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 on the first roll, then that
sum becomes the player's 'point'.
4)To win, the player must continue rolling the dice until he/she
'make the point'.
5)If the player rolls a 7 he/she loses.

Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with 4 trials and a probability of success of 0.60 Use a binomial probability table to find the probability that the number of successes is exactly 4.
The probability that the number of successes is exactly 4 is nothing.

One die is rolled and one marble – yellow, blue, purple, or red is selected at random.
-Determine the number of possible arrangements.
-Determine the probability of obtaining the number 2 and the blue marble.
-Determine the probability of obtaining the number 3 or the red marble.
-Determine the probability of obtaining an odd number or the purple marble.

Part 1.
When a probability experiment only has two possible outcomes and
you know the probability of one outcome, you can find the
probability of the other outcome by computing (the complementary
probability, using the addition rule, using the multiplication
rule)
To find the probability of two (mutually exclusive, independent)
events both occurring, you may simply multiply their individual
probabilities.
When two scenarios are (mutually exclusive, independent) , we can
simply add their probabilities together to find the probability
that one scenario or the other scenario occurs.
Part 2.
When using the choose function, the top number n represents (number of successes, number of trials, probability) and the bottom number k represents (number of trials, probability, number of successes )
Part 3.
Suppose you flip a coin 6 times. For each of the 6 trials there are 2 possible outcomes, heads or tails. Heads and tails each have a probability of 0.5 per trial. Consider "heads" to be a success. What is the probability that you only have 2 successes in 6 trials? Round your answer to four digits after the decimal point.
