Probability and Statistical Inference 9
(Michigan Mathematics Prize Competition, 1992, Part II) From the set \(\{1,2,3, \ldots, n\}\), \(k\) distinct integers are selected at random and arranged in numerical order (from lowest to highest). Let \(P(i, r, k, n)\) denote the probability that integer \(i\) is in position \(r\). For example, ob

Quantitative Chemical Analysis 8
In a coulometric Karl Fischer water analysis, 25.00 mL of pure dry methanol required 4.23 C to generate enough I2 to react with the residual H2O in the methanol. A suspension of 0.847 6 g of finely ground polymeric material in 25.00 mL of the same dry methanol required 63.16 C. Find the weight percen

Urban Economics 8
Education Spillover Benefi ts Consider a city where the initial wage of high-school dropouts is $10. Suppose the college share of the workforce increases by 2 percent. Use a demand-supply graph of the labor market for high-school dropouts to show the effects on the dropout wage. Use the numbers provi
