SHORT ANSWER. Write the word or phrase that best completes each statement or answers the question. Provide an appropriate response.
1) Compare probabilities and odds. How can you convert odds to probabilities?

Probabilities compare the number of occurrences of an event A to the total number of outcomes. Odds compare the number of occurrences of event A to the number of occurrences of the complement of event A. If the odds for A are 13:6, then P(A) = 13/19 since there would be a total of 19 outcomes (13 + 6).

2) List two reasons it is better to sample without replacement when testing batches of products.
When sampling without replacement, should you use the multiplication rule for independent or dependent events? Explain your answer.

The two reasons include the lower chance of getting only good items when some defects are present, and sampling with replacement might allow you to test the same item more than once which would be inefficient. You should use the multiplication rule for dependent events, since the sample space has diminished and the probability of choosing a second good item has gotten smaller.

3) Suppose a student is taking a 5-response multiple choice exam; that is, the choices are A, B, C, D, and E, with only one of the responses correct. Describe the complement method for determining the probability of getting at least one of the questions correct on the 15-question exam. Why would the complement method be the method of choice for this problem?

P(at least one correct) = 1 – P(none are correct). The alternative to the complement method is to find P(1), P(2),…P(15) and take this sum. This method is too time consuming and too difficult.

MULTIPLE CHOICE. Choose the one alternative that best completes the statement or answers the question.
Express the indicated degree of likelihood as a probability value.
4) “You have one chance in ten of winning the race.”

5) If a person is randomly selected, find the probability that his or her birthday is in May. Ignore leap years.

○ 1/365
○ 1/12
● 31/365

Answer the question, considering an event to be “unusual” if its probability is less than or equal to 0.05.
6) Assume that a study of 500 randomly selected school bus routes showed that 479 arrived on time. Is it “unusual” for a school bus to arrive late?

Answer the question.
8) Suppose you are playing a game of chance. If you bet $10 on a certain event, you will collect $500 (including your $10 bet) if you win. Find the odds used for determining the payoff.
○ 1 : 49
○ 50 : 1
● 49 : 1
○ 500 : 510
