- A regular DICE is rolled 50 times. The number 4 appears 10 times. What is the Experimental probability of a 4?a. 1/6b. 4/5c. 1/6d. 1/5arrow_forwardConsider the experiment where a penny is flipped, a quarter is flipped, and a 6-sided die is rolled. Let d be the number of possible outcomes of this experiment. What is the value of d? (Give your answer as a single integer with no words.) Let E be the event that both the penny and the quarter come up Tails, and the die comes up an odd number. If p(E) = , where d is your answer above, what is the value of x? Enter your answer as a single integer with no words:arrow_forwardFlipping a coin 10 times yields heads or tails. How many outcomes have a maximum of four tails?arrow_forward
- In a classroom of 27 students, 11 students have a blue pen, 12 students have a red pen, 7 students carry both a blue pen and pencil, 5 students carry a pencil and a red pen, 4 students carry 2 pens - one red and one blue, 2 students come prepared with one of each type of writing utensil, and 3 students consistently come to class with nothing to write with on paper and borrow from their study buddy. How many students carry only a pencil?arrow_forwardThere is almost always some sort of physical harm as a result of theft. For instance, if your automobile is stolen, you can experience financial loss, annoyance (since you'll have no way to go around), and mental suffering (because of invasion of your personal property and space). Which of the following three types of harm could be caused by a firm stealing computer equipment?arrow_forwardX-Kingdom has trapped n number of soldiers of their opponent. They want to execute them. They created a strategy so that the prisoners will kill each other and at the end one prisoner will be alive and eventually released. As part of the process, they assigned each trapped soldier a sequence number starting from 1 and ending at n. If n = 5 and k = 2, then the safe position is 3. Firstly, the person at position 2 is killed, then person at position 4 is killed, then person at position 1 is killed. Finally, the person at position 5 is killed. So, the person at position 3 survives. If n = 7 and k = 3, then the safe position is 4. The people at positions 3, 6, 2, 7, 5, 1 are killed in order, and the person at position 4 survives. Input:n and k Output:Print the list of prisoners in reverse order from n to 1Then reverse the list to print it in correct order from 1 to nDisplay the position number who will survive. You must have to use circular doubly linked list for your solution. You…arrow_forward
- Each of 10 flips of a coin produces either a head or a tail. How many possible outcomes have four tails at most?arrow_forwardSeveral coins are placed in cells of an n × m board, no more than one coin per cell. A robot, located in the upper left cell of the board, needs to collect as many of the coins as possible and bring them to the bottom right cell. On each step, the robot can move either one cell to the right or one cell down from its current location. When the robot visits a cell with a coin, it always picks up that coin. In addition, some cells (shown by X’s) on the board are inaccessible for the robot. You need to apply dynamic programming to find the maximum number of coins the robot can collect and a path it needs to follow to do this. As an example, we give a 5 by 6 board as follows: define your objective function write down the recurrence relation of the objective function make a DP table and fill it based on your recurrence relation backtrack from the destination to find out the optimal paths. You should explain the backtracking strategy, and mark the optimal paths on the above boarrow_forwardThere is almost always some sort of physical harm as a result of theft.
