Question: New bow. Our archer in Exercise purchases a new bow, hoping that it will improve her success rate to more than 80% bull s-eyes. She is delighted when she first tests her new bow and hits 6 consecutive bull s-eyes. Do you think this is compelling evidence that the new bow is better? In other words, is a streak like this unusual for her? Explain.

Exercise: Arrows. An Olympic archer is able to hit the bull s-eye 80% of the time. Assume each shot is independent of the others. If she shoots 6 arrows, what's the probability of each of the following results?

b) She misses the bull s-eye at least once.

c) Her first bull s-eye comes on the fourth or fifth arrow.

d) She gets exactly 4 bull s-eyes.

e) She gets at least 4 bull s-eyes.
