What is the probability of obtaining getting a number greater than 4 when rolling a single die once?
Since there are two numbers greater than 4 on a six sided die (5 & 6), the numerator of your fraction is 2. There are six possibilities in total (1, 2, 3, 4, 5,6), so that's your denominator. Your fraction will end up being 2/6, simplified it will be 1/3 or 1 out of 3.
Your name is harsh saxena you lost your roll number of upseat 2010 can you get dat back?
Possibly, but not from this site!
How do you test the normality of a random variable?
There are various goodness-of-fit tests. The chi-square and Kolmogorov-Smirnoff tests are two of the better known of these.
What are Alfred Marshall's thoughts on value and distribution?
His complex thoughts are extremely detailed, and he developed theories of value and distribution that combine marginal utility with real cost.
What does score mean at the end of a number?
A score is equal to twenty. "Four score and seven years" is eighty-seven years.
You would REALLY first need to find out what percentage of M&Ms are red. Since the sample is quite large, if this base percentage (as a ratio) is quite a bit lower than 0.165, then the probability you ask for is almost zero; if the ratio is quite a bit larger than 0.165, the probability you ask for will be almost 1 (i.e., 100%); only if the base probability is very close to 0.165 would you get more "interesting" results.
What is the smallest tree-digit number that has the digit 5?
105 - is the smallest tree-digit number that has the digit 5
If we are testing a hypothesis about the population mean , if none of the conditions of using a z-score or the conditions for using a t-score are met, we may use a proper non-parametric test.
How many people have birthday on nov 11 2011?
None, since, as of nov 4, 2011, nov 11, 2011 has not yet occurred.
How many three-number combinations can be made from 551?
Only 1. In a combination, the order of the digits does not matter.
Can a number with a 3 in the tens place be greater than a number with an 8 in the tens place?
Yes & No...For example, 230 is greater than 180, but if you are comparing two numbers that are both less than 100, then the answer is no. For example 83 is greater than 39.
There are 10 total numbers, and 26 letter in the Alphabet.
Taking away the 0 and the M, there are only 9 available numbers and 25 available letters.
34 x 34 = 1156
Which grid lines will never meet?
parallel lines intersecting lines will meet at some point (ha ha point! get it?)
Uses of computer in mathematics?
For years computers were used to do calculation, for example adding up columns of figures. Then tables were required and Babbage had the idea of mechanising the calculation to avoid the errors the computers made, devising the Difference Engine and the Analytical Engine.
Then in the 1940s during World War II, the first electronic computer was designed and built by Tommy Flowers to speed up the cracking of the Lorentz cypher (known as Fish) using statistical analysis.
When I was at Uni in the 80s I used the electronic computers to do numerical analysis to solve differential equations.
Electronic computers these days tend to be used to do the maths required at a much faster rate than ordinary (ie the original human) computers can for things like controlling the flight surfaces of an aeroplane.
They are also used for research and fun, eg finding the next highest prime number, finding e or π to more digits than before.
Electronic computers tend to be used for word processing and repetitive calculations (eg with encryption, such as using the RSA public key encryption which is based entirely on maths - using modulus operations on large numbers).
I'm currently studying accountancy and am just about to start a module which uses statistical methods which are made all the more easy by use of an electronic computer to do the actual calculations.
The worst use of electronic computers in maths is in the form of a pocket calculator: when I was teacher training and students were asked to do a simple sum, many (top set!) students reached for a calculator instead of doing it in their head - a skill much underrated.
How are frequency and math related?
Frequency can mean many different things. In general frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time. In statistics, it is the number of times a particular value occurs in a set . If you talk about wavelenght and waves, it is the number of times a waves that pass a fixed place in a given amount of time
