Chapter 4.4, Problem 31E

In Exercises 25–32, set up the payoff matrix.

Betting When you bet on a racehorse with odds of m n , you stand to win m dollars for every bet of n dollars if your horse wins; for instance, if the horse you bet is running at 5–2 and wins, you will win $5 for every $2 you bet. (Thus, a $2 bet will return $7.) Here are some actual odds from a 1992 race at Belmont Park, New York.21 The favorite at 5–2 was Pleasant Tap, the second choice was Thunder Rumble at 7–2, while the third choice was Strike the Gold at 4–1. Assume that you are making a $10 bet on one of these horses. The payoffs are your winnings. (If your horse does not win, you lose your entire bet. Of course, it is possible for none of your horses to win.)

A soccer player made 67% of her goal attempts last season. The coach wants to estimate the number of goals the player will make out of 10 attempts in a game and decides to run a simulation. Which of the following could be a representation of the events for the simulation?  Assign the numbers 00–67 to represent a made goal and the numbers 68–99 to represent a missed goal.  Assign the numbers 1–67 to represent a made goal and the numbers 68–100 to represent a missed goal.  Assign the numbers 1–7 to represent a made goal and the numbers 8–10 to represent a missed goal.  Assign the numbers 0–6 to represent a made goal and the numbers 7–9 to represent a missed goal.
