3. A room has a large circular table with ten seats, numbered 1 to 10, such that to the right of seat number i is seat number i + 1 for all i ∈ {1, . . . , 9} and to the right of seat 10 is seat 1. We want to assign seats to 10 people, 6 of them only speak Slovene, 1 of them only speaks English, and the remaining 3 speak both Slovene and English, by giving out numbered place cards. In how many ways can we do that so that everyone sits next to at least one person who speaks a common language?
1. A telegraph can transmit two different signals: a dot and a dash. We want to encode the 26 letters of the English alphabet and the ten digits 0, 1, 2, . . . , 9 using sequences of these two symbols. What is the smallest integer n such that we can encode all these letters and digits with sequences of length at most n and length at least 1?
Calculating probability for the Standard Normal Curve 1. Assume the mean is zero, the standard deviation is one, and it is associated with the distribution of z values. Each problem is worth 2 points, 1 point for drawing out the curve and shading the area requested and 1 point for the answer. a. What is the P(z > 0)? b. What is the P(z < 1.0)? C. What is the P(z <-1.0)?
