Question

2. Solve Each (a) How many ways can the letters in the word SLUMGULLION be arranged so that the three L's precede all the other consonants? (b) Give an example of a discrete random variable where expectation is infinite. Give its PDF explicitly and show that expectation is infinite. (c) Show for a continuous random variable X the limit $\lim_{x \to \infty} f_X(x)$ is not neces- sarily 0. Hint. Consider a function $g(x)$ such that $g(x) = a_k$ when $x \in [c_k, d_k]$ and $g(x) = 0$ outside of the intervals $[c_k, d_k]$. Now choose an appropriate se- quence of numbers ${a_k}$ and a sequence of intervals ${[b_k, c_k]}$ so that $g(x)$ is a PDF.

(b) Give an example of a discrete random variable where expectation is infinite. Give its PDF explicitly and show that expectation is infinite. (c) Show for a continuous random variable X the limit limx→∞fX (x) is not necessarily 0. Hint. Consider a function g (x) such that g (x) = ak when x ∈ [ck, dk] and g (x) = 0 outside of the intervals [ck, dk]. Now choose an appropriate sequence of numbers {ak} and a sequence of intervals {[bk, ck]} so that g (x) is a PDF.

1. Let's play with the word ANTANANARIVO. (a) What is it? (b) In how many distinct ways can the letters of this word be rearranged? [You must set up the numerical expression and then evaluate it.] (c) What is the probability that such a random rearrangement starts with all four As as the first four letters? [You must set up the numerical expression and then simplify it as much as possible.] 2. Let X be a random variable with the probability function f(x) = kx^2 for x = 2, 3, 4, 6. (a) Find the appropriate value of k. (b) Find f(3), F(3), f(4.2), and F(4.2). (c) Find the mean μ and the variance σ^2. 3. Let X be a random variable with the density function f(x) = kx^2 for 2 ≤ x ≤ 6. (a) Find the appropriate value of k. (b) Find f(3), F(3), f(4.2), and F(4.2). (c) Find the mean μ and the variance σ^2.

If All the lettErs of the word ABOUT are arranged at random in a line, find the probability that the arrangement will be a) spell the word ABOUT b) will not spell the word ABOUT c) start and end with a vowel d) begin with AB e) have the A at either end and the O in the middle f) have the three vowels together g) have the two consonants side by side h) not have the consonants side by side

Discrete Math a.) How many different strings of length three can be formed using the uppercase letters of the English alphabet if no letter may be repeated within a string? (This situation, in which no letter is permitted to appear more than once within a string, is called selection without repetition allowed.) b.) How many different strings of length three can be formed using the uppercase letters of the English alphabet if letters may be repeated within a string? (This situation, in which any given letter is permitted to appear zero or more times within a string, is called selection with repetition allowed.)

00:01 Hello students, today we will discuss about these questions.
00:03 In this question, we are given the word that is a -n -t -a -n -a -n -a -r -i -v -o.
00:14 So, here we need to find what is it.
00:23 After that, we need to find in how many distinct ways.
00:28 So here we need to find number of ways that the line.
00:33 Letters of this word will be rearranged.
00:40 And in the part c, then we need to find the probability that such a random rearrangement starts with all the four as the first four letters.
00:53 So here probability of the letters starts with the four first letters.
01:10 So here, first of all, first of letters.
01:14 For the part a, that is, it is the capital city of madagaster.
01:29 Now for the part b, there are 12 letters, but there are 4 a's and 3n.
01:44 So the possible distinct ways, that is equal to 12 factorial, divided by 4 factorial, multiplied by 3 factorial...
