The placement data of a business school suggest that the percentage of students securing a job with a multinational during the years 1996, 1997 and 1998 are 20%, 30% and 40% respectively. One student is chosen at random from the graduating batch of each year. Let X be the number of students, out of the three so selected who had secured a job with a multinational. Calculate the following:

a) The probability distribution of X
b) The Mean of X
c) The Standard Deviation of X

I was reading documentation about the soundness and completeness of logic formal systems. Consider the following $$\vdash_S \phi$$ where ##S## is the proof-system making part the formal system and ##\phi## is a wff (well formed formula) of the formal language. Note the blank on left of the turnstile symbol ##\vdash_S##, as far as I can tell it actually represents the empty set. So what does it mean ? I guess it actually means ##\phi## is a theorem of the formal system, i.e. there is a...
