The Whoville small urn contains 100 marbles – 60 blue and 40 orange. The Grinch sneaks in one night and grabs a simple random sample (without replacement) of 15 marbles.
(a) The probability that the Grinch gets exactly 6 blue marbles is [ Select ] ["≈ 0.054", "≈ 0.043", "≈ 0.061"] .
(b) The probability that the Grinch gets at least 7 blue marbles is [ Select ] ["≈ 0.922", "≈ 0.905", "≈ 0.893"] .
(c) The probability that the Grinch gets between 8 and 12 blue marbles (inclusive) is [ Select ] ["≈ 0.801", "≈ 0.760", "≈ 0.786"] .

Using Karnaugh maps and Gray coding, reduce the following circuit represented as a table and write the final circuit in simplest form (first in terms of number of gates then in terms of fan-in of those gates).
Consider the alphabet {a, b, c}.• Design a regular expression that recognizes all strings over {a, b, c} that have at least three nonconsec-utive c characters (two characters are non-consecutive if there is at least one character between them)and at least one a character.• Explain how your regular expression recognizes the string cbbcccac by clearly identifying which partsof the string match to the components of your regular expression
