Document Summary

We are studying sequences of runs in sequences that have m = 4 heads and n = 2 tails. Show that for all real n and integer k > 0: k(cid:17) =(cid:16) n + 1 k (cid:17) (cid:16) n k 1(cid:17) +(cid:16) n. The answer should be a fraction of two explicitly written integers. In a basket containing 10 apples 3 are bad. Problem 5. randomly between 3 baskets (drawing apples without replacement). 2 hold 3 apples and basket 3 holds 4 apples. Three independent events a1, a2 and a3 have identical probability. Prove carefully that p ( ) = 0, using the axioms of probability. Given that events a and b are independent, and have positive probability, which of the following are always true: p (a|b) = p (b |a, p (a|b) = p (a) 1: p (a|b) = p (b, p (a b) = p (a|b)p (b, p (a b ) = p (a)(1 p (b))

Here is one version of the story When Gauss was ten years old, he attended a certain math class with other kids. One fine day, the math teacher discovered that he was running out of time to grade the latest batch of math homeworks. This is why he decided to finish the grading during his math period. To keep the students busy while he graded, he gave them the following task at th of the period: Use your slate (the small personal blackboard that every student had start in class) to add up the numbers 1,2,3,... , 100 Seconds after the teacher gave this in-class assignment, little Gauss pointed to his slate Here is the answer." Then Gauss did nothing for an hour, while the other students labored with the additions and the teacher graded. At the end of the perioc Gauss showed the correct answer 5050 on his slate. Only Gauss got the correct answer. Then Gauss told everybody that the sum 12 +3.+ 100 is (1+100)+(2+99) + (3498)+ Problem 1. Explain carefully what Gauss had done.

These questions are asking about subrgoups, groups, isormorphic.

actually, after 2day, I got a midterm for abstract math test,and I got a sample of midterm test, so I hope to get a solution ofall these question. I think it is a lot, but I hope that pleaseshow me the answer and I want to know why these answer is this.

The reason why these problems are bunch of questions, so I willgive big pts for this questions. thanks.

you guys can upload by the picture.
