Baseball's World Series is a maximum of seven games, with the winner being the first team to win four games. Assume that the Atlanta Braves and the Minnesota Twins are playing in the World Series and that the first two games are to be played in Atlanta, the next three games at the Twins' ballpark, and the last two games, if necessary, back in Atlanta. Taking into account the projected starting pitchers for each game and the home field advantage, the probabilities of Atlanta winning each game are as follows: Game 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Probability of Win 0.4 0.55 0.42 0.56 0.55 0.39 0.52 Set up a spreadsheet simulation model for which whether Atlanta wins or loses each game is a random variable. What is the probability that the Atlanta Braves win the World Series? If required, round your answer to two decimal places. What is the average number of games played regardless of winner? If required, round your answer to one decimal place.

For part  ;a)

probability that the Atlanta Braves win the World Series=0.40

For part b ;b)

average number of games played regardless of winner =5.8

Step-by-step explanation:

using the  rand() function for the simulation of  the probabilities and  compare with given probabilites if less than above then Atlanta wins otherwise loses

a)

probability that the Atlanta Braves win the World Series=0.40

b)

average number of games played regardless of winner =5.8

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
