1.. Partial Differential Equations

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is a random experiment?

   Hint

   Think about tossing a coin.

2. 2.

   Give an example of a finite experiment.

   Hint

   Count the possible results.

3. 3.

   What is a random experiment?

   • A process with uncertain outcomes
   • A predetermined event
   • A controlled experiment

   Hint

   Consider an example you learned.

4. 4.

   True or False: A sample space includes only the favorable outcomes.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Think about all results from an experiment, not just the ones you want.

5. 5.

   You conduct an experiment where you measure the temperature at various times of the day. Define the sample space and identify if this is a finite or infinite experiment.

   Hint

   Think about the scale of temperature and how many measurable points you could have.

6. 6.

   Suppose you roll three dice and look for the event of getting at least one '1'. What is the probability of this event? Use your knowledge of complementary events.

   Hint

   Try to find the probability of the opposite event first to make calculations easier.
