suppose we play a game where we roll a six sided dice. if a 4,5 or 6 is rolled, i get 1 point if a 1,2,3 is rolled,you get 1 point. we play first to 5 but the winner must also win by 2. if we are tied at 5, what's the probability that you win the game?

Respuesta :

The probability that you win the game is 50%.

The game is symmetrical for you and your opponent. Thus, your probability of winning is as good as your opponent's, so, you have a 50% of winning.

What does symmetric mean in probability?

Symmetry goes into play in probability theory in this way: if different outcomes are equivalent, they would have the same probability.

A symmetrical distribution happens when the values of variables come at regular frequencies and usually the mean, median, and mode all happen at the same point.

In general, if there are N symmetrical outcomes, the probability of any given one of them happening is taken to be 1/N.
