Hello to everybody, I would like to ask how to compare the odds (the random responding). Let's image the situation of the test where are two types of events - target and non-target. Person need to respond to target event and must not respond to non-target events. Target events are occurring...

Straight Variant: The only difference is that the top rank can bridge the 1st rank to form a sequence. Think of it as if Q, K, A, 2, 3 was a legal straight. How is that calculated? A More Complex Straight Variant: This one gets trickier, I think. In this variant, there are: 64 cards 4 suits 13...

The New England Patriots are playing the Buffalo Bills. The fractional odds are Patriots 1/2 and the Bills 2/1, where a bet on the Patriots risks $2 to win $1, and a bet on the Bills risks $1 to win $2. A rational bettor has $1 to bet. A $1 wager on the favorite Patriots yields a $0.50 profit...

Hello folks! Before anything, an important disclaimer: I am an amateur at statistics and I’m trying to learn by my own. Please bear with me if the questions below sounds like utter nonsense to you guys: In an experiment where you have Team A playing a game of any sports against Team B, both...

Hello, Consider two different cases of soccer betting. 1) The first consists of 32 different sets of matches (each consisting of 5 matches with different odds of their own). Some of the individual matches (of 5 matches) in the sets can be the same with another set from time to time, but...

Standard deviation of a set of random probabilities Imagine I have n mutually exclusive events whose probabilities are perfectly random. The sum of their probabilities is 1 of course. What is their most likely standard deviation, if there is one? Playing around with R, it looks like there is...

A local health clinic sent fliers to its clients to encourage everyone, but especially older persons at high risk of complications, to get a flue shot in time for protection against an expected flu epidemic. In a pilot follow-up study, 160 clients were randomly selected and asked whether they...

Hi all, Suppose I have a model below (in R): glmer(Y~X + (1|subject), family="binomial", data=dat) Where Y is the binary outcome variable and X is the sole predictor variable with 6 levels. The results of the regression test is below. The intercept is the log odds of success for the...

I work in security and recently had a false positive happen where a certain word that was being tested occurred in the session id. Matching is not case sensitive. The character ranges that can be used in the session id: 0-9, A-Z, a-z, +, /. (no comma or period) The security check was...

Let's say I have an odds ratio from logistic regression that's 1.4:1 for males:females. How can I get probabilities back out of this? The formula for odds ratio is \frac{\frac{p_1}{1-p_1}}{\frac{p_2}{1-p_2}}

Hello gurus, I got involved in a debate with my sister this evening, and despite (what I thought) was a relatively simple problem, I couldn't provide a rigorous answer. I was hoping that someone on here could give me some insight. A casino she frequents will often give her "fake money" to...

Hi. I'm actually not working on homework, but trying to make odds tables for a card game called Summoner Wars to practice/learn math for fun. It's a typical dice battle game, where various characters roll varying amounts of dice to attack. For each die, if they role a 3, 4, 5, or 6, it...
