Homework Statement Hello! I am solving a problem that has a final answer in the book. However, my answer does not end up like the one even though I don't see any mistakes in my calculation by using a formula. More specific, my solution lacks power (n-1) as seen in the official answer and...

I see what you mean. My mistake is that I did not consider to multiply the probabilities by corresponding values. Then, my question is. Some problems that I solved earlier were easily solved by using tables like this. How do I distinguish which method to use?

Thank you a lot!

I drew a table: Def No Def I 0.08 0.32 0.40 II 0.10 0.50 0.60 0.18 0.82 1 It is a little bit off but you can see that elements add up to 1. and you can also see the number 0.82 - this is my answer.

The picture is located in the same folder where my latex file is.

Hello! When I add a picture in my LaTeX document, the system automatically adds the directory of the file like seen in the attachment. Is there a way to fix it? because I don't need the directory to be seen. My code is: \begin{center} \includegraphics[width=0.50\textwidth]{E:/Game Theory...

Thanks, this is correct!

[QUOTE=Ray Vickson} I later corrected myself. Please see if my solution that follows the original posting is correct? Thank you!

It means the very last job, the fourth one.

Then, the final answer for part a is: (4!16!)/(5!3!4!4!) divided by [20!/(6!4!5!5!)]

OK - Now I am correcting myself a bit. The logic behind part a answer: The total number of all the possible options is [20!/(6!4!5!5!)]. Now I know that I have to put 4 minority workers into each job. So I have 4! options of distribution of those minorities. I also have 16! workers that are...
