Homework Answers
Answer #1
1)probability that Golden State won the best of seven series over Cleveland in seven games =P(X=7)
=P(Golden State won 3 out of first 6 games and won 7th game)
=
=0.1659
2)
probability that Golden State won the best of seven series over Cleveland in six games =P(X=6)
=P(Golden State won 3 out of first 5 games and won 6th game)
=
=0.2074
3)
probability that Golden State won the best of seven series over Cleveland in 5 games =P(X=5)
=P(Golden State won 3 out of first 4 games and won 5th game)
=
=0.2074
4)
probability that Cleveland win the NBA championship =P(X=4)+P(X=5)+P(X=6)+P(X=7)
=0.1296+0.2074+0.2074+0.1659=0.7102

In a volleyball game between two teams, A and B, the game will
be over if a team wins two out of three sets. In any set, team A
has a 60 percent chance of winning the sets.
Model this game with Markov chain. Hint: Use (WA, WB) as the
states where WA is the number of sets A wins and WB is the number
of sets B wins. For example state (1,0) means A won 1 set and B...
