Suppose that two committees are to be formed in an organization with 300 members. If one committee has five members and the other committee has eight members, how many different ways can these committees be selected?
A physicist makes 25 independent measurements of the specific gravity of a certain body. He knows that the limitations of his equipment are such that the standard deviation of each measurement is 蟽 units.
a. By using the Chebyshev inequality, find a lower bound for the probability that the average of his measurements will differ from the actual specific gravity of the body by less than 蟽/4 units.
b. By using the central limit theorem, find an approximate value for the probability in part (a).
Which of the following two numbers is larger:\(\left( \begin{aligned}{}93\\30\end{aligned} \right)\)or\(\left( \begin{aligned}{}93\\31\end{aligned} \right)\)?
If the letterss,s,s,t,t,t,i,i,a, andcare arranged in a random order, what is the probability that they will spell the word 鈥渟tatistics鈥?
Consider two events A and B such that Pr(A) = 1/3 and Pr(B) = 1/2. Determine the value of \(P\left( {A \cap {B^c}} \right)\) for each of the following conditions: (a) A and B are disjoint; (b) A 鈯 B; (c) Pr(A 鈭 B) = 1/8.
