    The Haybaler Problem In The Haybaler Problem we were trying to see how much each bale of hay weighed, and if there is more than one answer. There were 5 bales of hay in total, and when put together they would equal 80, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 90, and 91. So I decided to start doing guess and check like this: A+B=80 and then substituting numbers like 39+41=80. I did it like this because I needed to come up with at least one number to start off. I tried different numbers like 39, 38, 40, and…

    Axiom of choice was formulated by Zermelo in 1904 and is known as Zermelo’s axiom of choice. This axiom stated that we can choose a member from each set in a collection of nonempty disjoint sets, C (Schechter, 2009). Additionally, according to Janes (2008), there exists a set X which consisting of one element taken from each set belonging to Y given that any nonempty set Y members are pairwise disjoint sets. Taking a role as a basic assumption used in many parts of mathematics as stated by…

    conditional probability representation. In additional, truth tables and probability are today uses. Bayes Theorem is the final concept in statistics, which is defined as the description of the probability of events based on related conditions. Thomas Bayes developed P (A|B) = P (B|A) (P (A) / P (B) where Pierre-Simon Laplace further the Bayes theorem formula and Sir Harold Jeffreys defined the Bayes Theorem as the theory probability. There are no early uses and is used for probability, odds,…

    I am M. Patricia Cifuentes, a postdoctoral researcher at Ohio State University, appointed by the College of Public Health and Biomedical Informatics. I am an MD specialized in statistics with a doctoral degree on Public Health. I contact you to share some research ideas I propose in the context of my application to the Yerby postdoctoral fellowship program for which I suggested you as faculty mentors. The proposal I presented consists on developing theory-based and data-driven models of health…

    /* 1 */ - This variable is equal to a constructor function called Winston. A constructor function is a function that is called everytime a new instance of this variable is created The parameters of this specific function are nickname, age, x, and y. /* 2 */ - In this line, this. refers to the current object instance which in this case is nickname. It is basically saying that the nickname property of this is equal to whatever is passed in the constructor function itself. This object is…

    product. Hence, the first partial product is 110111100. All of the partial products will have nine bits length. Next, the second partial product is determined by next three bits i.e. multiply by 2. Multiply by 2 means the multiplicand value has to shift left one bit. So, the second partial product is 001000100. Similarly the third partial product has to multiply by 1. So, the third partial product is the multiplicand value namely 000100010. The fourth partial product is determined by next three…

    The popular Monty Hall Problem is about being on a game show where you’re either going to win a fancy sports car or a goat. It’s a no brainer on which one you would prefer: the car. You have to choose between three doors. Behind two of the doors are goats and the fancy car is the last one. Whichever door you choose, the prize behind it is yours. The sample space is one thing to consider in this problem. There is a winning door and the two remaining doors are x and y and have goats behind them…

    position offsets from the INS position each time it is started. Point Mass Filter (PMF) PMF is a calculation that determines the position probability density function (PDF), as said by (N. Bergman, 1999). The point mass filter estimator the priori position distributions together with the error models of the depth measurements and the map to produce a posteriori probability…

    ISE SUMMER PROJECT 2015 Probability, randomness, and chance should be central in any STEM pedagogical model. The concepts of randomness and chance play a very significant role in the essence of all sciences, and especially in the empirical sciences. Randomness is a critical component of biological modeling at many levels in a wide range of systems. The fundamental axioms of the quantum paradigm in physics are, by definition, essentially stochastic. Economics uses the randomness in human thought…

    announced by the state. The winner gets a prize. The probability that the correct 3 digits in the right order is selected is at an odds of 1 in 1,000. So if If a ticket costs two dollars and the winner must pick a sequence of five digits then if There are 10^5=100,000 different combinations of 5 digit numbers and only the right combination wins the probability to win is at a 1 in 100000 chance to win. The chance to lose the 2 dollars put in is at a probability of 99999 in 100000 chance. Even if…
