You would make common denominators for all of the weights. The denominator is the bottom half of a fraction. The denominators are 2, 4 and 8. The common denominator of these numbers is 8. This is because 2 times 4 is 8 and 4 times 2 is 8. Now, because you multiplied the denominator of 2 by 4, you would multiply the numerator by 4. 1 times 4 is 4. So, the first number would 2 4/8. After that you would multiply 3/8 times 2. The answer to that would be 6/8. The next number is 1 1/4. Multiply the numerator and denominator by 2, getting 1 and 2/8. Now add 2 4/8, 6/8 and 1 2/8 together. The answer is 3 and 12/8. This can also be written as 4 and 4/12, which can also be written as 4 and 1/3.
The answer is 4 and 1/3 pounds.

A computer program contains one error. In order to find the error, we split the program into 6 blocks and test two of them, sele

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

There are $\dbinom62$ ways of selecting two of the six blocks at random. The probability that one of them contains an error is

$\dfrac{\dbinom11\dbinom51}{\dbinom62}=\dfrac5{15}=\dfrac13$

So $X$ has probability mass function

$f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac13&\text{for }x=1\\\\\dfrac23&\text{for }x=0\end{cases}$

These are the only two cases since there is only one error known to exist in the code; any two blocks of code chosen at random must either contain the error or not.

The expected value of finding an error is then

$\displaystyle\sum_{x=0}^1xf_X(x)=0\times\dfrac23+1\times\dfrac13=\dfrac13$
