What is a bingo machine? How does it function. After each pick does it does it reload( reset) to the 7/8 split?What are the odds I could randomly, let's say out of a bingo machine, pick 10 true statements in a row when the machine has 7 false statements loaded and 8 true statements totaling 15 in all?
My understanding is that such a machine selects randomly without replacement. There aren't 10 true statements. So the probability is 0.What are the odds I could randomly, let's say out of a bingo machine, pick 10 true statements in a row when the machine has 7 false statements loaded and 8 true statements totaling 15 in all?
If you really mean selection with replacement, please show your work, so we can see what help you need:Yes it reloads. Bingo machine is a tumbler with a handle to create randomness... the balls that represent true or false are color coded for distinction.
Thank you for the clarification. So it is sampling with replacement.Yes it reloads. Bingo machine is a tumbler with a handle to create randomness... the balls that represent true or false are color coded for distinction.
Did either of you read reply #3?The way the problem is written the answer is 0, as Dr Peterson said.
Just my way of saying that the OP should be more careful in their posting.Did either of you read reply #3?
