What does it mean to find the expected value of a chance activity with numerical outcomes?
I think it means to find the theoretical probability of something random that has results that are numbers. For instance, rolling a die and trying to get a 6 is a "chance activity with numerical outcomes".
At a significance level of 0.01 which conclusion can the brewer draw?
That there is a 99% chance that the results of the brewer's study happened because of his manipulation of the IV and not by chance
Percent chance of rain?
A forecast that says, for instance, "there is a 10% chance of rain tomorrow," means that on 10 out of 100 days with weather conditions very similar to the conditions expected tomorrow, at least a trace of train has occurred. Some will disagree with this answer for various reasons. For the results of research that evaluated how understanding of percentage chance of precipitation varies around the world, see "A 30% Chance of Rain Tomorrow: How Does the Public Understand Probabilistic Weather Forecasts?," available as a PDF file via the URL http://www.mpib-berlin.mpg.de/en/mitarbeiter/gigerenzer/pdfs/RainFinal.pdf .
What is the importance of statistics in science and technology?
Statistics is used all the time in science and technology. In short, statistics tell us whether our results are probably caused by chance or not. Statistics is used in research to compare results between different treatments. It can also help describe relationships between variables and results over time. The most important thing is that it tells you when your differences are large enough to probably not be caused by chance. Statistics can also used in manufacturing by setting specification ranges and other quality attributes.
Compensating and biased errors in statistics?
These errors occur due to chance. These errors tend to cancel to each other in long run. These errors are random. They are not the results of any prejudice or bais.

Can a probation officer give you a second chance pay?
They can recommend. But, you have to have done the work asked of you and show up. This is a time for you to show tangible results of your efforts to follow through with what you have been expected to do.
What does The first law of probability state?
States that the results of one chance event have no effect on the results of subsequent chance events.
Is it mathematically better to take many small risks over a long period or just to take one big risk in order to accomplish the same outcome?
Mathematically you will end up with more (or having lost less) if you take multiple small risks. Pretend you are playing a casino and you have $100.In one game, you have a 15% chance to win 10x the amount. Your expected return is:[.15 (your chance of winning) x 1000] - [.85 (your chance of losing) x 100)That equals 65, so your expected return is $65. Overall you would lose $35In another game, you have an 80% chance to win 2x the amount. Again the same equation:[.85 x 200] - [.15 x 100]That equals $155. Overall you would win about $55Obviously this is statistics so it's possible you win much more taking the big risk than you do playing the small risk, just not probable.
Do you have a chance to win a lottery this year?
If you have bought a ticket, then you have a chance. Your chance may not great, but as they say, if you are not in, you cannot win. No winner expected to win, but it could be you.
What is meant by observed genotypes?
A phenotype is a physical characteristic. For a human an observed phenotype example would be hair colour (e.g brown) or eye colour (green). An observed phenotype is a physical characteristic that can be seen directly or indirectly (internal organs) caused by an individual's genotype.
