(a) Suppose we take a random sample of size 100 from a discrete distribution in this manner: A green die and a red die are thrown simultaneously 100 times and let Xi denote the sum of the spots on the two dice on the ith throw‚ i = 1‚ 2‚...100. Find the probability that the sample mean number of spots on the two dice is less than 7.5. n = 100 µ = 7 µ[pic] = 7 σ = 2.41 σ[pic] = 2.41 /[pic] |X |2 |3

policies‚ but none are in writing‚ none are consistent‚ and none give a definite idea of what can be returned back to Johnson Toy Company. One such policy allows defective items to be returned which is prudent as defective toys could cause a lawsuit if a child was harmed. However‚ this informal policy does not define what is defective‚ nor place limits on what can be returned. The company also does not have a policy for who pays the shipping costs of returning the items. Some retailers are covering

Cynthia Johnson Period 3 Experiment 11: Electron Probability I. Statement of Purpose: We determined the hit probability of a dart by throwing it onto a fixed target one hundred times. IV. Data* *Attached V. Results and Questions 1. (a) *Graph (b) The probability that the dart will hit in ring four is 16 out of 100. A dart will be most likely to hit the bulls-eye about 5 cm from it. (c) Our graph has a spike in hits on the ring

Factor of safety and probability of failure Introduction How does one assess the acceptability of an engineering design? Relying on judgement alone can lead to one of the two extremes illustrated in Figure 1. The first case is economically unacceptable while the example illustrated in the drawing on the right violates all normal safety standards. Sensitivity studies The classical approach used in designing engineering structures is to consider the relationship between the capacity C (strength

ABSTRACT: We study complexity of finding a local minimum in the worst and the average cases. We introduce several neighborhoods and show that the corresponding. In the average case we note that standard local descent algorithm is polynomial. INTRODUCTION: An algorithm is a set of instructions to be followed to solve a problem Worst‚ Average and Best Cases In the previous post‚ we discussed how asymptotic analysis overcomes the problems of naive way of analyzing algorithms

INTRODUCTION Probability theory is the mathematical foundation of statistics‚ and it can be applied to many areas requiring large data analysis. Curiously‚ that the study on probability theory has its root in parlor games and gambling. In 17th century‚ dice gambling was a very common entertainment among the upper class. An
