A fair dice is thrown many times. It is known that at some point the total amount of points became equal to exactly 2010.
Find the mathematical expectation of the number of throws made to this point.
Hercules meets the three-headed snake, the Lernaean Hydra and the battle begins. Every minute, Hercules cuts one of the snake’s heads off. With probability \(\frac 14\) in the place of the chopped off head grows two new ones, with a probability of \(1/3\), only one new head will grow and with a probability of \(5/12\), not a single head will appear. The serpent is considered defeated if he does not have a single head left. Find the probability that sooner or later Hercules will beat the snake.
A high rectangle of width 2 is open from above, and the L-shaped domino falls inside it in a random way (see the figure).
a) \(k\) \(L\)-shaped dominoes have fallen. Find the mathematical expectation of the height of the resulting polygon.
b) \(7\) \(G\)-shaped dominoes fell inside the rectangle. Find the probability that the resulting figure will have a height of 12.
At the Antarctic station, there are \(n\) polar explorers, all of different ages. With the probability \(p\) between each two polar explorers, friendly relations are established, regardless of other sympathies or antipathies. When the winter season ends and it’s time to go home, in each pair of friends the senior gives the younger friend some advice. Find the mathematical expectation of the number of those who did not receive any advice.
At the ball, there were \(n\) married couples. In each pair, the husband and wife are of the same height, but there are no two pairs of the same height. The waltz begins, and all those who came to the ball randomly divide into pairs: each gentleman dances with a randomly chosen lady.
Find the mathematical expectation of the random variable \(X\), “the number of gentlemen who are shorter than their partners”.
A sequence consists of 19 ones and 49 zeros, arranged in a random order. We call the maximal subsequence of the same symbols a “group”. For example, in the sequence 110001001111 there are five groups: two ones, then three zeros, then one one, then two zeros and finally four ones. Find the mathematical expectation of the length of the first group.
An incredible legend says that one day Stirling was considering the numbers of Stirling of the second kind. During his thoughtfulness, he threw 10 regular dice on the table. After the next throw, he suddenly noticed that in the dropped combination of points there were all of the numbers from 1 to 6. Immediately Stirling reflected: what is the probability of such an event? What is the probability that when throwing 10 dice each number of points from 1 to 6 will drop out on at least one die?
A sequence of natural numbers \(a_1 < a_2 < a_3 < \dots < a_n < \dots\) is such that each natural number is either a term in the sequence, can be expressed as the sum of two terms in the sequence, or perhaps the same term twice. Prove that \(a_n \leq n^2\) for any \(n=1, 2, 3,\dots\)
Is the sum of the numbers \(1 + 2 + 3 + \dots + 1999\) divisible by 1999?
\(a_1, a_2, a_3, \dots\) is an increasing sequence of natural numbers. It is known that \(a_{a_k} = 3k\) for any \(k\). Find a) \(a_{100}\); b) \(a_{2022}\).
