Find the solution for the following: Three backpackers cooked rice for dinner. The first one gave 400g of rice and the second 20

0g of rice. The third one did not have any rice so he gave $6 to the other two. How should they divide the $6 in a fair way ( assume they equally shared the dinner) ?

Answer:

First backpacker should receive $4 and the second one $2

Step-by-step explanation:

notice that the total amount of rice for the three is 600 g.

Then, the first one that gave 400 g contributed 400 out of 600, that is 400/600 = 2/3

The second one contributed 200 out of 600, that is 200/600 = 1/3

then the first one should receive 2/3 of the $6 = (2/3) x 6 = $4

and the second one should receive 1/3 of the %6 = (1/3) x 6 = $2

Using the bijection rule to count binary strings with even parity.
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Lets denote c the concatenation of strings. For a binary string <em>a</em> in B9, we define the element f(a) in E10 this way:

  • f(a) = a c {1} if a has an odd number of 1's
  • f(a) = a c {0} if a has an even number of 1's

Step-by-step explanation:

To show that the function f defined above is a bijective function, we need to prove that f is well defined, injective and surjective.

f   is well defined:

To see this, we need to show that f sends elements fromo b9 to elements of E10. first note that f(a) has 1 more binary integer than a, thus, it has 10. if a has an even number of 1's, then f(a) also has an even number because a 0 was added. On the other hand, if a has an odd number of 1's, then f(a) has one more 1, as a consecuence it will have an even number of 1's. This shows that, independently of the case, f(a) is an element of E10. Thus, f is well defined.

f is injective (or one on one):

If a and b are 2 different binary strings, then f(a) and f(b) will also be different because the first 9 elements of f(a) form a and the first elements of f(b) form b, thus f(a) is different from f(b). This proves that f in injective.

f is surjective:

Let y be an element of E10, Let x be the first 9 elements of y, then f(x) = y:

  • If x has an even number of 1's, then the last digit of y has to be 0, and f(x) = x c {0} = y
  • If x has an odd number of 1's, then the last digit of y has to be a 1, otherwise it wont be an element of E10, and f(x) = x c {1} = y

This shows that f is well defined from B9 to E10, injective, and surjective, thus it is a bijection.
