A spinner from a board game randomly indicates a real number
between 0 and 20. The spinner is fair in the sense that it
indicates a number in a given interval with the same probability as
it indicates a number in any other interval of the same length.
(a) Explain why the functionf(x) =
f(x)=
0.05
if
0 ≤ x ≤ 20
0
if
x < 0 or x > 20
is a probability density function for the spinner's values?...

Consider the interval [0, 1]. Assume you randomly pick a real number in that interval with a probability density that is constant on that interval and write the number in decimal code. Give an argument for the following statement by using suitable Theorems and ideas from class: With probability equal to one the relative number of the figures “9” you see amongst the first n digits approaches 1/10 as n tends to infinity.
