Consider a random collection of individuals. In approximating the probability that no of these individuals share the same birthday, a better Poisson approximation than that obtained in the text (at least for values of between and ) is obtained by letting be the event that there are at least 3 birthdays on day
(a) Find .
(b) Give an approximation for the probability that noindividuals share the same birthday.
(c) Evaluate the preceding when (which can be shown to be the smallest value offor which the probability exceeds.).
Suppose that a die is rolled twice. What are the possible values that the following random variables can take on:
(a) the maximum value to appear in the two rolls;
(b) the minimum value to appear in the two rolls;
(c) the sum of the two rolls;
(d) the value of the first roll minus the value of the second roll?
