The lowa Wolves is scheduled to play against the Maine Red Claws in an upcoming game in the National Basketball Association (NBA) G League. Because a player in the NBA G League is still developing his skills, the number of points he scores in a game can vary substantially. Assume that each player's point production can be represented as an integer uniform random variable with the ranges provided in the following table: Player 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 O a UN lowa Wolves [6,21] [8,21] [6,11] [11,41] [7,21] [4,11] [3,6] [3,5] Maine Red Claws [9,14] [17,22] [12,22] [17,32] [7,12] [3,22] [3,6] [4,6] (All answers were generated using 1,000 trials) (a) Develop a spreadsheet model that simulates the points scored by each team and the difference in their point totals. What are the average and standard deviation of points scored by the lowa Wolves? (b) What are the average and standard deviation of points scored by the Maine Red Claws? (e) Let Point Differential = Iowa Wolves points - Maine Red Claws points. What is the average Point Differential between the lowa Wolves and Maine Red Claws? What is the standard deviation of the Point Differential? (d) What is the probability that the lowa Wolves scores more points than the Maine Red Claws? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. (e) The coach of the lowa Wolves feels that they are the underdog and is considering a riskier game strategy. The effect of this strategy is that the range of each Wolves player's point production increases symmetrically so that the new range is [0, original upper bound + original lower bound). For example, Wolves player 1's range with the risky strategy is [0, 27]. How does the new strategy affect the average and standard deviation of the Wolves point total? How does that affect the probability of the lowa Wolves scoring more points than the Maine Red Claws?
