Case 1 With first toss if a tail turns up, the experiment stops. So getting a 'Tail' in 1st toss is one event. Case 2 Suppose it is a Head, then we throw a die. Here again the experiment will come to an end if we get an odd number on the die. 3 possibilities exists a Head and 1, a Head and...

Case 1 With first toss if a tail turns up, the experiment stops. So getting a 'Tail' in 1st toss is one event. Case 2 Suppose it is a Head, then we throw a die. Here again the experiment will come to an end if we get an odd number on the die. 3 possibilities exists a Head and 1, a Head and 3, or a Head and 5. Case 3 After getting a head on the first toss we toss a die and this time we get an even number on a die then we throw the die again. Here we have total 18 possibilities, which are as follows: a Head and 2 and 1 a Head and 2 and 2 a Head and 2 and 3 a Head and 2 and 4 a Head and 2 and 5 a Head and 2 and 6 a Head and 4 and 1 a Head and 4 and 2 a Head and 4 and 3 a Head and 4 and 4 a Head and 4 and 5 a Head and 4 and 6 a Head and 6 and 1 a Head and 6 and 2 a Head and 6 and 3 a Head and 6 and 4 a Head and 6 and 5 a Head and 6 and 6 So total number of events = 1+3+18= 22 and the sample space is S={T,H1,H3,H5,H21,H22,H23,H24,H25,H26,H41,H42,H43,H44,H45,H46,H61,H62,H63,H64,H65,H66} read less

A coin has two faces: head (H) and tail (T). In that we need only H. A die has six faces that are numbered from 1 to 6, with one number on each face. Among these numbers, 2, 4, and 6 are even numbers, while 1, 3, and 5 are odd numbers. Here, we need only even. If it is odd, the process will be...

A coin has two faces: head (H) and tail (T). In that we need only H. A die has six faces that are numbered from 1 to 6, with one number on each face. Among these numbers, 2, 4, and 6 are even numbers, while 1, 3, and 5 are odd numbers. Here, we need only even. If it is odd, the process will be terminated. Hence, Head along with even numbers on the die is our sample space.So, S= {H2, H4,H6} read less

Teaching because it is fun

This question can b solved by applying simple logical interpretation of the given question: The outcomes can be of three types: 1) Single event only (Tail is the outcome), n(single event)=1 2) Double event (Head followed by the three odd numbers on the die) n (double event) = 1 x 3= 3 3) Triple...

This question can b solved by applying simple logical interpretation of the given question: The outcomes can be of three types: 1) Single event only (Tail is the outcome), n(single event)=1 2) Double event (Head followed by the three odd numbers on the die) n (double event) = 1 x 3= 3 3) Triple event (Head, followed by even number, followed by all the six numbers) n (triple event) 1 x 3 x 6 = 18. Therefore, n(sample space) = 22. It shouldn't be difficult to figure out the sample space from here. read less

Matrix MATH

Think about how many ways the experiment comes to an end: 1) Toss—output=T, experiment stopped. So one outcome= T 2) Toss—output=H, next step Throw the die—output= 1 or 3 or 5, experiment stopped. So outcomes= (H,1), (H,3), (H,5). 3) Toss—output=H, next step Throw the die—output= 2 or 4 or 6, next...

So Outcomes= (H,2, anyone from (1 to 6) ), (H,4, anyone from (1 to 6) ), (H,6, anyone from (1 to 6) ). So the required Sample Space: { (T), (H,1), (H,3), (H,5), (H,2, anyone from (1 to 6) ), (H,4, anyone from (1 to 6) ), (H,6, anyone from (1 to 6) ) } read less

Hi friends. I thought of sharing something wonderful i found on web so that it can help all of us & augment our understanding of the topic - 'Limit' . I have shared the complete pdf in my profile gallery or the original web link at the end of this post. An Intuitive Introduction To Limits Limits, the Foundations Of Calculus, seem so artificial and weasely: “Let x approach 0, but not get there, yet we’ll act like it’s there… ” Ugh. Here’s how I learned to enjoy them: What is a limit? Our best prediction of a point we didn’t observe. How do we make a prediction? Zoom into the neighboring points. If our prediction is always in between neighboring points, no matter how much we zoom, that’s our estimate. Why do we need limits? Math has “black hole” scenarios (dividing by zero, going to infinity), and limits give us a reasonable estimate. How do we know we’re right? We don’t. Our prediction, the limit, isn’t required to match reality. But for most natural phenomena, it sure seems to. Limits let us ask “What if?”. If we can directly observe a function at a value (like x=0, or x growing infinitely), we don’t need a prediction. The limit wonders, “If you can see everything except a single value, what do you think is there?”. When our prediction is consistent and improves the closer we look, we feel confident in it. And if the function behaves smoothly, like most real ­world functions do, the limit is where the missing point must be. Key Analogy: Predicting A Soccer Ball (associated pics in original post) Pretend you’re watching a soccer game. Unfortunately, the connection is choppy: So we missed what happened at 4:00. Even so, what’s your prediction for the ball’s position? Easy. Just grab the neighboring instants (3:59 and 4:01) and predict the ball to be somewhere in­ between. And… it works! Real ­world objects don’t teleport? they move through intermediate positions along their path from A to B. Our prediction is “At 4:00, the ball was between its position at 3:59 and 4:01?. Not bad. With a slow ­motion camera, we might even say “At 4:00, the ball was between its positions at 3:59.999 and 4:00.001?. Limits are a strategy for making confident predictions. Limits aren’t the only tool for checking the answers to impossible questions; infinitesimals work too. The key is understanding what we’re trying to predict, then learning the rules of making predictions. Happy math. (Original author - Mr. kalid ) Original post link: http://betterexplained.com/articles/an-intuitive-introduction-to-limits/ My profile link: https://www.urbanpro.com/delhi/pankaj-k/2531974 You may find more interesting stuff and information that can be of some help to you. I will be adding more pdfs in gallery soon . Sharing is caring.
If one wants the pdf in my galley on 'limits' can give a better understanding of the same material.
