Let us analyze the following setting. You are given a circle of unit circumference. You pickkpoints on the circle independently

and uniformly at random and snip the circle at those points, obtainingkdifferent arcs. Determine the expected length of any single arc.

Answer:

We have been given a unit circle which is cut at k different points to produce k different arcs. Now we can see firstly that the sum of lengths of all k arks is equal to the circumference:

\small \sum_{i = 1}^{k} L_i= 2\pi

Now consider the largest arc to have length \small l . And we represent all the other arcs to be some constant times this length.

we get :

 \small \sum_{i = 1}^{k} C_i.l = 2\pi

where C(i) is a constant coefficient obviously between 0 and 1.

\small \sum_{i = 1}^{k} C_i= 2\pi/l

All that I want to say by using this step is that after we choose the largest length (or any length for that matter) the other fractions appear according to the above summation constraint. [This step may even be avoided depending on how much precaution you wanna take when deriving a relation.]

So since there is no bias, and \small l may come out to be any value from [0 , 2π] with equal probability, the expected value is then defined as just the average value of all the samples.

We already know the sum so it is easy to compute the average :

\small L_{Exp} = \frac{2\pi}{k}

Answer:

3 m^8

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a^b / a^c = a^( b-c)  so using the quotient rule for exponents

3 * m^( 7 - -1)

3 *m^(8)

The 2nd term of an exponential sequence is 9 while the 4th term is 81.find the common ratio,the first term and the sum of the fi
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

second term: 9

4th term:81

(3rd \: term)^{2}  = 9 \times 81

=729

\sqrt{729}  = 27

3rd term=27

{9}^{2}  = a1x27 \\ 81 = 27a1

a1=3 the first term

81 = 3 \times {q}^{3}

{q}^{3}  = 27

q=3

s = 3x \frac{1 -  {3}^{5} }{1 - 3}  = 364.5

Billy is playing a game using a bag with 11 marbles inside. The bag contains 3 red, 3 orange, 1 yellow, 2 purple marbles, and 2
Dmitrij [34]

Answer: 3/55

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, the bag contains 3 red, 3 orange, 1 yellow, 2 purple marbles, and 2 Pink marbles. Each time he picks an orange marble, she will win a prize.

If he picks a marble the first time, the probability of picking an orange marble will be 3/11. After that we will have 10 marbles left as one has been picked and have 2 orange marbles left, then the probability of picking another orange marble will be 2/10.

Therefore, the probability he will win a prize on both picks will be:

= 3/11 × 2/10

= 6/110

= 3/55
