In probability theory and statistics, the binomial distribution with parameters n and p is the discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of n independent experiments, each asking a yes–no question, and each with its own Boolean-valued outcome: success (with probability p) or failure (with probability q = 1 − p).
A veridical paradox is a paradox whose correct solution seems to be counterintuitive. It may seem intuitive that the probability that the remaining coin is gold should be 2 / 3 , but the probability is actually 1 / 2 . [1] Bertrand showed that if 1 / 2 were correct, it would result in a contradiction, so 1 / 2 ...
Each scenario has a 1 / 6 probability. The original three prisoners problem can be seen in this light: The warden in that problem still has these six cases, each with a 1 / 6 probability of occurring. However, the warden in the original case cannot reveal the fate of a pardoned prisoner.
The answer to the first question is 2 / 3 , as is shown correctly by the "simple" solutions. But the answer to the second question is now different: the conditional probability the car is behind door 1 or door 2 given the host has opened door 3 (the door on the right) is 1 / 2 .
“He stands up and goes, ‘Nope, the American people aren’t going to pay that.’ And he’s like, ‘You’re going to have to figure out a way to make that cheaper.’” ...
"The key thing is people made the same mistakes they did in 2016,” said James Johnson, founder of J.L. Partners, in a statement to Newsweek. His outfit was one of the few to correctly predict a ...
A discrete probability distribution is applicable to the scenarios where the set of possible outcomes is discrete (e.g. a coin toss, a roll of a die) and the probabilities are encoded by a discrete list of the probabilities of the outcomes; in this case the discrete probability distribution is known as probability mass function.
