For n=1,2,3,...,22
the values of f(n) are:
[0.9000, 0.8100, 0.7290, 0.6561, 0.5905, 0.5314, 0.4783, 0.4305,
0.3874, 0.3487,
0.3138, 0.2824, 0.2542, 0.2288, 0.2059, 0.1853, 0.1668, 0.1501,
0.1351, 0.1216,
0.1094, 0.0985
We see that when n=22, f(22)<0.1
Hence smallest n=22

4.26 In a lottery game, three winning numbers are chosen uniformly at random from (1, ,100), sampling without replacement. Lottery tickets cost $1 and allow a player to pick three numbers. If a player matches the three winning numbers they win the jackpot prize of $1,000. For matching exactly two numbers, they win $15. For matching exactly one number they win $3 d) Hoppe shows that the probability that a single parlayed ticket will ulti- mately win the jackpot is...
