Question

Discuss 2 real world examples of randomness and the use of probability to understand your examples.

Answer 1

1 )
In sports ,

including American football use coin toss to randomly select starting conditions for games
i.e if there 2 teams Team A and Team B
Chance of selected as starting Team A will be selected with probability 1/2 (0.5)
Means if toss a coin 10 times there will be nearly equall to 5 times Chance for Team A

and same For Team B .
2)
In politics ,
Suppose you know that 60 percent of the people in your commu-
nity are Democrats, 30 percent are Republicans, and the remaining 10 percent
are Independents or have another political affiliation. If you randomly select
one person from your community, what’s the chance the person is a Democrat?
The chance is 60 percent. You can’t say that the person is surely a Democrat
because the chance is over 50 percent; the percentages just tell you that the
person is more likely to be a Democrat.
