There are 3 empty buckets lined up. Someone takes 4 apples and places each one in a bucket. The placement of each apple is random and independent of the others. What is the probability that the first two buckets end up with no apples?
(Round your answer to three decimal places. Example: if the true answer is 2/3, you should enter 0.667.)
Homework Answers
The total number of ways of placing four apples into 3 buckets is 43=64 as each apple has 3 options to be placed.
Now number of ways in which the first two buckets end up with no apples is exactly 1 as 3rd bucket is fixed to have all apples. Hence the probability of this even is 1/64 = 0.016

In Java, Using arrays. You are going to write a program that will play a solitaire (one-player) game of Mancala (Links to an external site.) (Links to an external site.). The game of mancala consists of stones that are moved through various buckets towards a goal. In this version of mancala, the user will be able to choose a number of buckets and a number of stones with which to set up the game. The buckets will be created by...

Part I. Understanding What Makes an Experiment 1) Please identify the 3 vital components of an experiment. After identifying each component, write at least one sentence elaborating on/explaining each component (10 points) Answer – The most conventional type of experiment involves three major pairs of components: independent and dependent variables, pretesting and post testing, and experimental and control groups. An experiment examines the effects of independent variable on a dependent variable. 1- Manipulate at least one independent variable. This means...
