Two fair dice are thrown. Let P be the probability that the product (multiply) of the two die will exceed some number. Which of

the following probabilities is not possible for the value of P? Assume that all probabilities are rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth. (HINT: Order the products from largest to smallest for all possible rolls of the die.) 0.2222 0.1667 0.7778 0.5556 0.4167

P(of product of 2 dices) = 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36
If we have 2 similar product then P(2 similar) = 2/36
If we have 3 similar product then P(3 similar) = 3/36
P(n similar) = n/36
P =0.2222 ====n/36 =0.2222 ≈ n=8 (right)
P =0.1667====n/36 = 0.1667 ≈ n=8 (right)
P = 0.7778====n/36 = 0.7778 ≈n = 28 WRONG ( with 2 dice we cannot get 28, since 28 = 4x7 or 7x4 and the max in one dye is 6)

A source of information randomly generates symbols from a four letter alphabet {w, x, y, z }. The probability of each symbol is
koban [17]

The expected length of code for one encoded symbol is

\displaystyle\sum_{\alpha\in\{w,x,y,z\}}p_\alpha\ell_\alpha

where p_\alpha is the probability of picking the letter \alpha, and \ell_\alpha is the length of code needed to encode \alpha. p_\alpha is given to us, and we have

\begin{cases}\ell_w=1\\\ell_x=2\\\ell_y=\ell_z=3\end{cases}

so that we expect a contribution of

\dfrac12+\dfrac24+\dfrac{2\cdot3}8=\dfrac{11}8=1.375

bits to the code per encoded letter. For a string of length n, we would then expect E[L]=1.375n.

By definition of variance, we have

\mathrm{Var}[L]=E\left[(L-E[L])^2\right]=E[L^2]-E[L]^2

For a string consisting of one letter, we have

\displaystyle\sum_{\alpha\in\{w,x,y,z\}}p_\alpha{\ell_\alpha}^2=\dfrac12+\dfrac{2^2}4+\dfrac{2\cdot3^2}8=\dfrac{15}4

so that the variance for the length such a string is

\dfrac{15}4-\left(\dfrac{11}8\right)^2=\dfrac{119}{64}\approx1.859

"squared" bits per encoded letter. For a string of length n, we would get \mathrm{Var}[L]=1.859n.

What is 579 divided by 3
KonstantinChe [14]
Just so you know, you can always use a calculator... or google which I know you have access to, considering you are on this site. Well, actually you could be using the brainly app but that's not the point. What I am trying to say is... you don't have to waste your points on questions like this! That's what Google is for :) Btw... your answer is 193
