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.

Answer:

a) so if you're looking for a then you substitute the a in the problem so the real question would be answered by simply doing this. 3 times (do this first) 6 times 3. so it would end up looking like this if you did it in your head. 6x3=18 then 18x3= 54 so the answer for ten after you did all the math would equal out to be 54.

d) so you're going to substitue the d again, for what it tells you d equals. in this case, d= a negative 2 so, 5 x do this first -2 x 4 = so if you did this in your head you would end up with -2 x 4 = -8 because anything times a negative is turned into a negative. so that is why the answer is -8 for the first part. then you multiply that answer by 5 because we all like the 5 dollar foot longs. so carry that into an answer of - 40. because we all know we want to be younger once we reach 40.

r) 5times -3 equals -15 times 2 would be... ding ding ding 30 because a negative times a negative is a positive. think of negatives this way. when you frown it's your smile upside down. ok so a frown is a negative, if you multiply a negative to a negative it's like turning your frown upside down. so you end up with a positive! ok?! so there. the secrets of life and math.

call me for the rest of the answers... this is too much to write down.
