Question 4 A red die, a blue die, and a yellow die (all six-sided) are rolled. We are interested in the probability that the number appearing on the blue die is less than that appearing on the yellow die which is less than that appearing on the red die. (That is, if B (R) [Y ] is the number appearing on the blue (red) [yellow] die, then we are interested in P(B < Y < R). ) (a) What is the probability that no two of the dice land on the same number? (b) Given that no two of the dice land on the same number, what is the conditional probability that B < Y < R? (c) What is P(B < Y < R)?

Suppose that the grading of x University courses is as follows:• Each student can get grades between 0 and 100.• If the student's grade is less than 40, the student is informed that the course failed (Unsuccessful).• If the student's grade is higher than 40,o The difference between the student's current grade and the number that is a multiple of 5 higher than the closest to his / her grade is less than 3.If it is lower, the student's grade is equal to the 5 fold higher than the closest one.o If the difference is 3 or more than 3, no change is made in the grade of the student.In this context, the updated grades of the students are calculated according to the entered student gradesWrite the Java code showing.ü Define the section to be calculated as Java object ("Question1").ü Question1; Take the note string as input.public Question1 (int [] input)ü Print out the updated notes as a series after the calculation is madeo public int [] gradingStudents ()Code sample:public class Question1…
Electromagnetic Pulse propagating at oblique angle to a dielectric interface Consider a gaussian wave pulse propagating along the z-axis from region 1 with refractive index n1 and onto a dielectric interface y = m z (for all x). To the left of this dielectric interface, the refractive index is n2. Devise an initial value computer algorithm to determine the time evolution of the reflected and transmitted electromagnetic fields for this pulse. e.g., n1 = 1 , n2 = 2 initial profile (t = 0, with z0 < 0) Ex = E0 exp[-a (z-z0)^2] By = n1 * Ex Choose parameters so that the pulse width is at least a fact of 8 less than the z- domain of integration ( -L < z < L). For the slope of the interface, one could choose m = 1.
I don't need a code for these questions. I just need them answered Nine steel specimens were submerged in seawater at various temperatures, and the corrosion rates were measured. The results are presented in the following table:Temperature (OC)Corrosion(mm/yr.)26.6 1.5826 1.4527.4 1.1321.7 0.9614.9 0.9911.3 1.0515 0.828.7 0.688.2 0.59a.

(3a) Compute the stability function S of the Rosenbrock method (108), that is, compute the (rational) function S(z), such that y1 = S(z)y0, z ∶= hλ, when we apply the method to perform one step of size h, starting from y0, of the linear scalar model ODE y˙ = λy, λ ∈ C
John is training for a marathon and he can easily alternate between running a mile and walking a mile. If he runs for 2 miles in a row, he becomes fatigued, and must then walk for 2 miles in a row in order to no longer be fatigued. When he is fatigued, he can still alternate between running a mile and walking a mile, but if he runs 2 miles in a row while already fatigued, he will collapse on the side of the road. If he runs 3 miles in a row at any point, he will also collapse. Let the letter 'a' stand for John running 1 mile, and the letter 'b' stand for John walking 1 mile. Draw a DFA which accepts all possible runs in which John does not collapse on the side of the road.

With this exercise, we shall develop a solution to the following riddle. Two adults, their three children, and their dog are on a walk when they come upon a river. They have a boat, but it can only hold a maximum of one adult with either one child or the dog; or three chidren; or two children and the dog. Anyone (other than the dog) can row the boat; but it would be too much work for one child to row across by themself. How can they all get across the river? You are required to solve this riddle by modelling it using a labelled transition system (LTS). 1. What are the states of your LTS consist of? Make sure you consider all the aspects of the riddle. Justify your notion of state. 2. What are the actions of your LTS? List all the actions. Justify your choice of actions. 3. Drawing out the entire LTS may be a time consuming task as there could be very many states and transitions. However, drawing out only part of the LTS is doable. Draw part of the LTS, anywhere between 7 and 12…

A ski rental agency has n pairs of skis, where the height of the the ith pair of skis is si . There are n skiers who wish to rent skis, where the height of the ith skier is hi. Ideally, each skier should obtain a pair of skis whose height matches her/his own height as closely as possible. We would like to assign skis to skiers so that the sum of the absolute differences of the heights of each skier and her/his skis is minimized. Design a greedy algorithm for the problem. Prove the correctness of your algorithm. (Hint: Start with two skis and two skiers. How would you match them? Continue to three skis and three skiers, and identify a strategy.)
