1. (30 pts) Suppose two evenly matched players are equally likely to win when they play against each other (there is no draw). a) (20 pts) They play a series of games until a player has three victories. Let X be the number games played until there is a winner. Find E(X) and SD(X). b) (10 pts) Suppose a player wins after having n victories. Let X be the number of games played, m be the minimum value of X, and M be the maximum value of X. (i) (5 pts) Find m and P(X = m), and plot P(X = m) for n = 1, ..., 10. (ii) (5 pts) Find M and P(X = M), and plot P(X = M) for n = 1, ..., 10. a) 3 4 5 . P ( X = 3) = 2 (4)' = 1 P x ( k) 114 (3/ 8 3/ 8 . P ( X = 4 ) = 2 ( ; ) ( 4 ) " = 2 3 (; ) = .
