The 1899 cleveland spiders were a historically awful baseball team, finishing with a win-loss record of 20-134. so, assume that team would win any given game with probability 13%. find the probability that the spiders would have won their first three games played that season.

The probability that the Cleveland Spiders would have won their first three games is 0.00219.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define a random variable X as follows:

can be either 1 or 0, 1 meaning that they won and 0 that they lost the game. We want the to compute the probability that they've won on the first, second and third game. In other words:

Let's assume the events are independent, then:
