Team A is asked about the chance of defeating Team B the next time they play basketball, a player from Team A said that it is 50-50, either they will or they will not. Do you agree with this statement? Why or why not?
yes, i am agree with the statement that there is a 50-50 chance of winning or losing the match to team B.
As we can see that there are only 2 teams, i.e. team A and team B, so only possible outcomes are
(1) either team A wins and team B losses, i.e. 1/2 probability of winning for team A and 1/2 probability of losing for team B
(2) either team A loses and team B wins, i.e. 1/2 probability of losing for team A and 1/2 probability of winning for team B
so, there is always 50-50 chances that either team A will win or they will not win.
