    Probability that the selected student will be in an odd-numbered grade

    so the event (student chosen is in grade 3) has size=7 so the probability is =1/7

    ok, I see the response above.

    Probability that the selected student will be in an odd-numbered grade

    Homework Statement A school contains students in grades 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. Grades 2,3,4,5 and 6 all contain the same number of students, but there are twice this number in grade 1. a)If a student is selected at random from a list of all the students in the school, what is the probability...

    What Are the Events in a Sample Space of a Deck of Cards?

    Thank you so much for your help. I get it now. I did not realize that I was doing wrong the entire problem, not just the words description.

    What Are the Events in a Sample Space of a Deck of Cards?

    Is it: BCc(blue cards numbered bigger than 5)={B6, B7...B10} the notation confuses me a lot: is it {BC6, BC7...BC10} or only {B6, B7...B10} I don't get it. Please explain it better, please.

    What Are the Events in a Sample Space of a Deck of Cards?

    I think is okay, b/c B={1,2,3...10} C={1,2,3,4} The BCcc={5,6...10}. It is the intersection B\capCc. and the Cc is all numbers except C.

    What Are the Events in a Sample Space of a Deck of Cards?

    Suppose that one card is to be selected from a deck of 20 cards taht cointains 10 red cards numbered from 1 to 10 and 10 blue cards numbered from 1 to 10. Let A be the event that a card with an even number is selected; let B be the event that the blue card is selected; and let C be the event...

    Prove by induction (discrete math's)

    Didn't you make a mistake under presure or in a hurry to get many thinks done. I mention that I am almost 50 years old and I am back to school. I it is diffucult for me. I can get this problem done even without your help. I don't blame anybody. But similar example was given and you have no...

    Recursive Definition of a Sequence: Solving for a5

    Thank you for the proof of my work. That is the way the professor wants us to do it. :smile:

    How large is k+1? n=k=4 k+1=5 Then what?

    Prove by induction (discrete math's)

    I am not sure , but I will try. 6^k > 2^k*2 I don't think I can finish this problem. I asked in class similar problem ,but this professor is happy to make us more confused, he doesn't explain well at all. I also don't think that other kids in the class get it. I just don't get it, sorry.

    Prove by induction (discrete math's)

    I am sorry, thanks for the note. I know that I have to start first with the proof in base part, I just skip it in a hurry. :redface: Here is: let n=4 n!>2^n 4!>2^4 24>16 (base) n=k k!>2^(k+1) consider for n=k+1 (k+1)!= (k+1)k!>(k+1)(2^k) I don't know how to show it. Please...

    Loop invariant(discrete math's)

    for part b) from above: 2m^6< n^4 2m^6 < n^4 multiply both sides by 81 81(2m^6) < 81n^4 162m^6 < (3n)^4 128m^6 < 162m^6 2*64=128m^6<81n^4 2(2m)^6 < (3n)^4 2^6=64 and 3^4=81 this is how they find 64 and 81 and start with them but nothing is clear. My problem is combined...

    Loop invariant(discrete math's)

    Mark, thank you very much for showing me this way. I will work on this problem again and I will be glad if you review it for me again. It is complicated problem. I really want to find how to solve it. I am not surprise that no one else try it. :smile: 81 and 64 I have from solving (3m)^5 and...
