15 coupons are numbered 1,2,3,...,15 respectively. 7 coupons are selected at random one at a time with replacement. The probability that largest number apperaing on a selected coupon is 9 is
@knov
can someone help me
what's your question ?
http://prntscr.com/aoxceb its right here i just need the steps im in 6th grade
I m not getting it .. R u talking to me or Emon?
Im typing in your post. So im talking to you.
Great then bt why is he posting his question in my post?
You solve it.
i was just asking where i can find someone i didnt mean to be rude.
i have no idea.
Leave it.. My question is what is the probability that largest number appearing on the selected coupon comes out to be 9?
okay, so it's a combinatoric question.
Yep! You may call so
so we have 7 options to choose. Assume that first outcome is |dw:1459963257657:dw|
and so on..
I found the total outcomes .. That is 15^7
here we can say that the largest number here is 15.
We need to rule out this case for we need that 9 has to be the biggest number..
yes
there are 7 coupons we can choose from fifteen. how many numbers are less than 9 ?
8
can you found out the probability the first 6 coupons are less than 9 ?
Hey wait ... Do u want to say that 9 has to occur on the last coupon??
no, it could occur on all coupons.
Hey wait ... Do u want to say that 9 has to occur on the last coupon??
Bt u said that i need to find out the probability of first 6 coupons showing less than 9..
well, nvm. let's try out the other way. I found it more complicated.
Luks gud to me !
The new way !
let's assume that the all coupons are chosen from 1,2,3...9.
I also made this in my notebook just now!
