Ignoring leap days, the days of the year can be numbered 1 to 365. Assume that birthdays are equally likely to fall on any day o

f the year. Consider a group of 10 people, of which you are not a member. The sample space consists of all possible sequences of 10 birthdays (onefor each person).
a. Define the probability function P for S.
b. Consider the following events:
1. "someone in the group shares your birthday";
2. "some two people in the group share a birthday";
3. "some three people in the group share a birthday". Carefully describe the subset of S that corresponds to each event.

c. Find an exact formula for P(A). What is the smallest m such that P(A) > .5?
d. Justify why m is greater than 365 without doing any computation. (We 3 are looking for 2 a short answer giving a heuristic sense of why this is so.)
e. Find an exact formula for P(B).

Answer:

Follows are the solution to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

They can count the days of the year 1 to 365. The random project consists of drawing a sample of n objects from D where elements are n people's birth in a group but instead, D = {1,....365}. And then there's the issue.

S=365^n

This because the list of future birthdays of n people was its test point; therefore m points will be in the sequence so each point contains 365 distinct outcomes. The probability function P for \Omega is that any event is likely to happen in 365 days.

P(x)=\frac{1}{365^{n}}

if x is between 1 and 365 as well as the occurrence is just all similarly possible

In point i:

That somebody mentions their birthday throughout the party

Guess I was born on day b. Therefore the consequence of "x is in A" is "b is now in the series of x," which is to say, b = bk for some amount k approximately 1 and n.

In point ii:

Any 2 persons share the same birthday at this party". A result x is in B" means which "two of entries in x are same." This means that perhaps the outcome x is in B if or only if bj = bk is in B of two numbers j, and k of 1, of two. , no, n.

In point iii:

Many three students share the same birthday with both the party. The consequence is x at the level of C only when bj = bk = bl at three (different) indices, j, k, l, 1. , no, n.

Owen’s rectangular garden has a length of (x+3) feet and a width of (x−4) feet. If the area of the garden is 18 square feet, wha
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

  length: 9 ft

  width: 2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be worked using a quadratic equation, or it can be worked by considering factors of the area value.

__

<h3>difference in dimensions</h3>

The difference in length between the long side (x+3) and the short side (x-4) is ...

  (x +3) -(x -4) = 3+4 = 7 . . . . feet

<h3>area factors</h3>

The area formula is ...

  A = LW

The given area is 18 square feet, so we want to find numbers that multiply to give 18 and that differ by 7 in their values. Here are the integer factors of 18:

  18 = 1×18 = 2×9 = 3×6

Of these factor pairs, the values 2 and 9 differ by 7.

The garden is 9 feet long and 2 feet wide.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

We can check to see if these numbers are consistent with the given expressions:

  x+3 = 9  ⇒  x = 6

  x -4 = 6 -4 = 2 . . . . the other dimension we found

__

If you solve this using a quadratic equation, you will find that dimensions -2 ft and -9 ft also pop out. That is x +3 = -2, or x = -5 is also a solution to the quadratic. Of course, that is an extraneous solution, which we avoid by considering only positive factors of 18.

The quadratic equation we're referring to is A=18 ⇒ (x+3)(x-4) = 18.

I'm don't understand polygons, as you should know
lawyer [7]

Answer:

540°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

sum = 180° (n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

Here n = 5, thus

sum = 180° × 3 = 540°

   Looking at the figure, the rectangle has the vertexes (2,1), (3,-3), (-5,-5) and (-6,-1). The parallelogram has the vertexes (2,7), (3,3), (3,-3), and (2,1).

The area of a parallelogram is base times height. We have 2 vertical lines at x=2 and x=3, so the height is 1. And the length of the line from (3,3) to (3,-3) is 6, so the base is 6. Therefore the area of the parallelogram is 1*6 = 6.

  The rectangle is a tad trickier since it's not aligned with either the x or y axis. But we can use the Pythagorean theorem to get the lengths.

 L = sqrt((2 - -6)^2 + (1 - -1)^2)

 L = sqrt(8^2 + 2^2)

 L = sqrt(64 + 4)

 L = sqrt(68) = 2*sqrt(17)

  W = sqrt((2-3)^2 + (1- -3)^2)

 W = sqrt((-1)^2 + 4^2)

 W = sqrt(1 + 16)

 W = sqrt(17)

  And the area is length * width, so:

 2*sqrt(17)*sqrt(17) = 2 * 17 = 34

  And the total area is the sum of the areas, so

 34 + 6 = 40

  So the area of the figure is 40 square units.
