(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The probability of being 6 paces from the origin after four steps has to be stated.

Concept introduction:

In the one-dimensional random walk, the particles are allowed to travel only in a straight line along the x axis with each step a jump through a distance d to the left or right.  The probability that the walk ends at a specific distance from the origin is calculated by taking into account the statistics of the process.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The probability of being 6 paces from the origin after six steps has to be stated.

Concept introduction:

As mentioned in concept introduction in part (a).

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The probability of being 6 paces from the origin after twelve steps has to be stated.

Concept introduction:

As mentioned in concept introduction in part (a).
