9% of people in the U.S. have type B-positive blood. Let N denote the number of people we must sample in order to find one having that blood type. Determine P(N < 12).
a) .484 b) .526 c) .646 d) .733 e) .824
The software output for this problem is:
Hence,
P(N < 12) = 0.646
Option C is correct.

I got a C++ problem. Let n be a positive integer and let S(n) denote the number of divisors of n. For example, S(1)- 1, S(4)-3, S(6)-4 A positive integer p is called antiprime if S(n)くS(p) for all positive n 〈P. In other words, an antiprime is a number that has a larger number of divisors than any number smaller than itself. Given a positive integer b, your program should output the largest antiprime that is less than or equal...
number thoery just need 2 answered 2. Let n be a positive integer. Denote the number of positive integers less than n and rela- tively prime to n by p(n). Let a, b be positive integers such that ged(a,n) god(b,n)-1 Consider the set s, = {(a), (ba), (ba), ) (see Prollern 1). Let s-A]. Show that slp(n). 1. Let a, b, c, and n be positive integers such that gcd(a, n) = gcd(b, n) = gcd(c, n) = 1 If...
Q18 12 Points For any positive integer n, let bn denote the number of n-digit positive integers whose digits are all 1 or 2, and have no two consecutive digits of 1. For example, for n - 3, 121 is one such integer, but 211 is not, since it has two consecutive 1 's at the end. Find a recursive formula for the sequence {bn}. You have to fully prove your answer.
2) In the U.S., about 8.5% of people are B+ for blood type. You take a sample of size 9. You’re interested in people who are B+. Figure out the following probabilities: a) Pr{Y = 3} b) Pr{Y = 1} c) Pr{Y < 1} d) Pr{Y > 0} (hint - use (c) to answer this and make sure you know why this works)
Part 15A and 15B (15) Let n E Z+,and let d be a positive divisor of n. Theorem 23.7 tells us that Zn contains exactly one subgroup of order d, but not how many elements Z has of order d. We will determine that number in this exercise. (a) Determine the number of elements in Z12 of each order d. Fill in the table below to compare your answers to the number of integers between 1 and d that are...
Problem 7.

Let X denote the number of times you have to play a game in order to win once. Assume attempts are independent, and that the chance of winning each time you play is p. (a) Find the probability that X is even (as a function of p). [Hint: You’ll use a geometric series from calculus.] (b) What happens to your answer to (a) as p → 1?
8. Define (n) to be the number of positive integers less than n and n. That is, (n) = {x e Z; 1 < x< n and gcd(x, n) = 1}|. Notice that U (n) |= ¢(n). For example U( 10) = {1, 3,7, 9} and therefore (10)= 4. It is well known that (n) is multiplicative. That is, if m, n are (mn) (m)¢(n). In general, (p") p" -p Also it's well known that there are relatively prime, then...
