Team HW #1
12
Team Homework #1 Use the definition of expected value and the binomial theorem Do not use the moment generating function. You may need to recall how to shift indices in a summation (see the hidden slides below for review).
13
Index Shifting Sigma representation of a summation is not unique
14
Index Shifting Sigma representation of a summation is not unique

Index Shifting Sigma representation of a summation is not unique
16
Index Shifting Sigma representation of a summation is not unique
17
Index Shifting Rules
18
decrease the index by 1 increase the i in the summation by 1
19
Index Shifting Rules increase the index by 1 decrease the i in the summation by 1

Team Homework #2 A campaign staff knows from experience that only one in every three volunteers called will actually show up to distribute leaflets.
22
Team Homework #2 How many phone calls must be made to guarantee at least 20 workers with a confidence of 90%?
23
Team Homework #2 How many phone calls must be made to guarantee at least 20 workers with a confidence of 90%? Minimum
24
Team Homework #2 Use a binomial model to solve the problem. You need to write a Maple program to help you solve the problem. You need to explain your methodologies, arguments, and conclusions carefully. Extra works are welcome – In the past, students had done more than they were asked to get bonus points.

Zeng Section 1.4 Introduce the first type of repetition statements – the for loop Allow a specific section of code to be executed/repeated a number of times Introduces simple arrays
26
Zeng Section 1.4 Please listen to the explanations before you type in the program. It takes one minute to explain.
27
Example 1 Print the square of the first 10 positive integers What is the task being repeated?
28
Example 1
29
1210 14100
30
Example 1 > sq(); 1 4 9
31
Structure of the for loop
32
The loop_index increase by the default step size 1 everytime the execution of block of statements to be repeated is finished. Different step size can be used by adding “ by stepsize ” feature.
33
Example 2 Print the square of the first 10 positive odd integers
34
Example 2
35
> sq2(); 1 9 25
36
Example 3
40
> sq3(2); 1, 4 > sq3(5); 1, 4, 9, 16, 25
