That's what philosophers say!

The text calls these, "implied probabilities."

Suppose there are ##n## mutually exclusive possibilities and that (precisely) one must happen. You are offered odds of ##a_k:b_k## for...

You can calculate a general solution based on any number of different odds. England is not an Olympic nation. It's Great Britain.

As an aside, a friend of mine said there's a guy in Finland who trawls the Internet looking for such betting anomalies. And makes a good...

You are right, this is not the whole statement of the question, I've skipped the following note (I'm sorry!):

I assumed that Ra wasn't accepting bets that it rains, but rather accepting bets that it would not rain. And that the odds of 3:2...

In Special Relativity there is no absolute time. In particular, there is no universal simultaneity. Events that happen in the same place...

Hi, and welcome to PF! It would help if you could give some specific references to where you have read this. However, I suspect what...

PS I see now this is the same as your answer, more or less: ##x = \frac {14}{29} \approx \$48.28##.

It's late and I'm tired, but my understanding is: You bet ##x## with Ra that it will not rain. If it rains, you lose ##x##. If it does...

Discreteness of what, though? Let's take the cases you give: Even leaving aside that there are arguments in the literature against the...

:welcome: Entangled systems are not "synchronized" as you imagine. They follow a set of rules that can be difficult to understand for...

I have no idea what you mean by this. A system of particles in an entangled state is described by a single state that cannot be...

Well, the loudest people who question GR are crackpots who have no idea about GR whatosever. And they question GR as a whole, in the...
