Suppose that you pick a bit string from the set of all bit strings of length ten. Find the probability that a) the bit string ha

s exactly two 1s; b) the bit string begins and ends with 0; c) the bit string has the sum of its digits equal to seven; d) the bit string has more 0s than 1s; e) the bit string has exactly two 1s, given that the string begins with a 1.

Answer:

  • 45/1024
  • 1/4
  • 15/128
  • 193/512
  • 9/512

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2^10 = 1024 bit strings of length 10.

a) There are 10C2 = 45 ways to have exactly two 1-bits in 10 bits

  p(2 1-bits) = 45/1024

__

b) Of the four (4) possibilities for beginning and ending bits (00, 01, 11, 10), exactly one (1) of those is 00.

  p(b0=0 & b9=0) = 1/4

__

c) There are 10C7 = 120 ways to have seven 1-bits in the bit string.

  p(7 1-bits) = 120/1024 = 15/128

__

d) ∑10Ck {for k=0 to 4} = 386 is the total of the number of ways to have 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 1-bits in the string. If there are more than that, there won't be more 0-bits than 1-bits

  p(more 0 bits) = 386/1024 = 193/512

__

e) The string will have two 1-bits if it starts with 1 and there is a single 1-bit among the other 9 bits. There are 9 ways that can happen, among the 512 ways to have 9 remaining bits.

  p(2 1-bits | first is a 1-bit) = 9/512

The sum of 3 consecutive integers is 90. Find the largest integer if x is the smallest integer.
____ [38]

Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

x, x+1, x+2

x + x + 1 +x + 2 = 90

3x + 3 = 90

     -3      -3

3x = 87

/3     /3

x = 29

29 + 2 = 31

What does 1/4 subtract 1/11 equal
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

7/44

Step-by-step explanation:

you can't simply subtract 1/11 from 1/4 because the denominators are not the same . Meaning you have to convert the denominators into a similar number. Transformers in even number and a consecutive number while 11 is an odd number and a prime number they don't really agree on anything 11 can only be divided by itself and 1 wall for can be divided by a multitude of things. Because of them not exactly agreeing on any specific category , you have to multiply them by each other . So your new fractions should look like 11 / 44 and 4 / 44 . from there you can easily subtract 4 from 11 and get 7 / 44 now normally you can reduce these types of fractions but because seven can only be divided by itself and 44 is not a factor of 7 you cannot reduce this fraction .

The SAT mathematics scores in the state of Florida for this year are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a
Greeley [361]
<u></u><u>The correct answer is 47.5%, or 0.475.</u>

Explanation:
The empirical rule states that in any normal distribution:

68% of data will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean;
95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and
99.7% of data will fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The mean is 500 and the standard deviation is 100.  This means that 700 is 2 standard deviations away from the mean:

(700-500)/100=200/100=2.

We know that 95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations from the mean.  However, included in the 95% is data less than the mean and greater than the mean.  Since we are only concerned with the scores from 500 to 700, we only want the half that is greater than the mean:

95/2 = 47.5%, or 0.475.
