1/4 of 8 is 2. that means 3/4 of 8 is 6. 2, or 1/4 is left over.
Wait wouldn’t it just be subtracting 355 from 15 cause if so your answer is 340 but I’m not to sure
It would be the one in the top right hand corner. and no problem
Answer:
a) 1/2
b) 1/n
c) 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
a) For each permutation, either 1 precedes 2 or 2 precedes 1. For each permutation in which 1 precedes 2, we can swap 1 and 2 to obtain a permutation in which 2 preceds 1. Thus, half of the total permutations will involve in 1 preceding 2, hence, the probability for a permutation having 1 before 2 is 1/2.
c) If 2 is at the start of the permutation, then it is impossible for 1 to be before 2. If that is not the case, then 1 has a probability of 1/n-1 to be exactly in the position before 2. We can divide in 2 cases using the theorem of total probability,
P( 1 immediately preceds 2) = P (1 immediately precedes 2 | 2 is at position 1) * P(2 is at position 1) + P(1 immediately precedes 2 | 2 is not at position 1) * P(2 is not at position 1) = 0 * 1/n + (1/n-1)*(n-1/n) = 1/n.
d) We can divide the total of permutations in 4 different groups with equal cardinality:
- Those in which n precedes 1 and n-1 precedes 2
- those in which n precedes 1 and 2 precedes n-1
- those in which 1 precedes n and n-1 precedes 2
- those in which 1 precedes n and 2 precedes n-1
All this groups have equal cardinality because we can obtain any element from one group from another by making a permutations between 1 and n and/or 2 and n-1.
This means that the total amount of favourable cases (elements of the first group) are a quarter of the total, hence, the probability of the event is 1/4.
