Answer:

There are 151,200 different ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

For solving this question, we need  the concept of permutation, the permutation gives as the number of ordered arrangement that can be made chosen k elements from a group of n elements. it is calculated as:

\frac{n!}{(n-k)!}

So, in this case, we need to find the number of ways in which 6 top participants from the 10 participants can cross the finish line.

Now, we can replace n by 10 and k by 6 and calculate the number of permutations as:

\frac{10!}{(10-6)!}=151,200

Finally, there are 151,200 different ways in which the top 6 cars can cross the finish line.

g Consider the experiment of a single roll of an honest die and a single toss of 3 fair coins. Let X be the value on the die and
klemol [59]

Answer:

The probability function of X and Y is

P(X = k, Y = 0)  = 1/48\\P(X = k, Y = 1) = 1/16\\P(X = k, Y = 2) = 1/16\\P(X = k, Y = 3) = 1/48

With k in {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can naturally assume that X and Y are independent. Because of that, P(X=a, Y=b) = P(X=a) * P(Y=b) for any a, b.

Note that, since the die is honest, then P(X=k) = 1/6 for any k in {1,2,3,4,5,6}. We can conclude as a consequence that P(X=k, Y=l) = P(Y=l)/6 for any k in {1,2,3,4,5,6}.

Y has a binomial distribution, with parameters n = 3, p = 1/2. Y has range {0,1,2,3}. Lets compute the probability mass function of Y:

P_Y(0) = {3 \choose 0} * 0.5^3 = 1/8

P_Y(1) = {3 \choose 1} * 0.5* 0.5^2 = 3/8

P_Y(2) = {3 \choose 2} * 0.5^2*0.5 = 3/8

P_Y(3) = {3 \choose 3} * 0.5^3 = 1/8

Thus, we can conclude that the joint probability function is given by the following formula

P(X = k, Y = 0) = 1/8 * 1/6 = 1/48\\P(X = k, Y = 1) = 3/8 * 1/6 = 1/16\\P(X = k, Y = 2) = 3/8 * 1/6 = 1/16\\P(X = k, Y = 3) = 1/8 * 1/6 = 1/48

For any k in {0,1,2,3,4,5,6}
