A random number generator is used to select an integer from 1 to 3 inclusive. What is the difference between the estimated proba

bility that a 3 is generated and the actual probability that a 3 is generated?

Step-by-step Answer:

In general, random number generators generate a uniform distribution, and we generally ASSUME that this is so.

If that is the case, the estimated probability of selecting a 3 is 1/3.

The actual probability depends on the generator.  Some as ASSUMED to be uniform, but it could be biased on particular numbers, knowingly or unknowingly.  

Some generators are programmed to generate particular distributions (other than uniform), such as exponential, normal, or any other probability distribution.  In these cases, the probability of selecting a 3 will depend on the distribution.

Even if the generated distribution is known, the actual probability could still be different from the theoretical (or estimated), because that is why we call them "random numbers".

In short, the "actual" probability depends on the characteristics of the generator, of which we have no knowledge.

Given:

In triangle ABC, AB = AC, AD is angle bisector and measure of angle C is 49 degrees.

To find:

The value of x and y.

Solution:

In triangle ABC,

AB=AC                    (Given)

So, triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle and by the definition of base angles the base angles of isosceles triangle are congruent.

In isosceles triangle ABC,

\angle B\cong \angle C

m\angle B\cong m\angle C

m\angle B\cong 49^\circ

The angle bisector of an isosceles triangle is the median and altitude of the triangle. So, the angle bisector is perpendicular to the base.

m\angle ADB=90^\circ

x^\circ=90^\circ

In triangle ABD,

m\angle DAB+m\angle ABD+m\angle ADB=180^\circ         [Angle sum property]

y^\circ+49^\circ+x^\circ=180^\circ

y^\circ+49^\circ+90^\circ=180^\circ

y^\circ=180^\circ-49^\circ-90^\circ

y^\circ=41^\circ

Therefore, the correct option is B.

The number of bacteria growing in an incubation culture increases with time according to n left parenthesis t right parenthesis
Anon25 [30]
For this case we have the following function:
 n (t) = 2400 * (5) ^ t 
 For n (t) = 60000 we have:
 60000 = 2400 * (5) ^ t
 We clear the value of t.
 For this we use the logarithm:
 (5) ^ t = 60000/2400
 log5 ((5) ^ t) = log5 (60000/2400)
 t = log5 (60000/2400)
 t = 2 days
 Answer:
 
the number of bacteria in the culture will be 60 comma 000 after:
 
t = 2 days
