The data in the tables below were collected from first year students at a community college. The variable is "number of credit c

ards." If the table below is a complete probability distribution, what must be the value of T?
Number of Credit Cards (x) 0 1 2 3 4 5
Number of Students (f) 122 40 28 2 2 6
Probability P(x) 0.61 T 0.14 0.01 0.01 0.03
A. 0.4
B. 0.04
C. 0.2
D. 0.02

Solution :

It is given that P(x) is said to be complete or proper probability distribution if it satisfies the following two ways :

1. $P(x) \geq 0$

2. $\sum_z P(x) = 1$

Now consider,

$\sum_z P(x) = 1$

⇒ $P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)+P(x=3)+P(x=4)+P(x=5)=1$

⇒ $0.61+T+0.14+0.01+0.01+0.03=1$

⇒ $0.8+T=1$

⇒ $T=1-0.8$

       = 0.2

Therefore, the value of T is 0.2

Thus, option (c) is correct.

hmm

11.75=11 and 3/4
so times it by 4  to clear denomenator
but do it by top and bottom

23.4/11.75 times 4/4=93.6/47

so times it by 4/4

5. The recursive algorithm given below can be used to compute gcd(a, b) where a and b are non-negative integer, not both zero.
s2008m [1.1K]

Implementating the given algorithm in python 3, the greatest common divisors of <em>(</em><em>124</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>244</em><em>)</em><em> </em>and <em>(</em><em>4424</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>2111</em><em>)</em><em> </em>are 4 and 1 respectively.

The program implementation is given below and the output of the sample run is attached.

def gcd(a, b):

<em>#initialize</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>function</em><em> </em><em>named</em><em> </em><em>gcd</em><em> </em><em>which</em><em> </em><em>takes</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>two</em><em> </em><em>parameters</em><em> </em>

if a>b:

<em>#checks</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>greater</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em><em>b</em>

return gcd (b, a)

<em>#if</em><em> </em><em>true</em><em> </em><em>interchange</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>Parameters</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>Recall</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>function</em><em> </em>

elif a == 0:

return b

elif a == 1:

return 1

elif((a%2 == 0)and(b%2==0)):

<em>#even</em><em> </em><em>numbers</em><em> </em><em>leave</em><em> </em><em>no</em><em> </em><em>remainder</em><em> </em><em>when</em><em> </em><em>divided</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>checks</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em> </em><em>are</em><em> </em><em>even</em><em> </em>

return 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)

elif((a%2 !=0) and (b%2==0)):

<em>#checks</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>odd</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>even</em><em> </em>

return gcd(a, b/2)

else :

return gcd(a, b-a)

<em>#since</em><em> </em><em>it's</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>recursive</em><em> </em><em>function</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>recalls</em><em> </em><em>the function</em><em> </em><em>with </em><em>new</em><em> </em><em>parameters</em><em> </em><em>until</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>certain</em><em> </em><em>condition</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>satisfied</em><em> </em>

print(gcd(124, 244))

print()

<em>#leaves</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>space</em><em> </em><em>after</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>first</em><em> </em><em>output</em><em> </em>

print(gcd(4424, 2111))
