Question in Content created by Newcastle University
Given a piecewise CDF $F_X(b)$ which is discontinuous at several points, find the probabilities at those points and also find the value of $F_X(b)$ at a continuous point and the expectation.
This cdf is a step function and is therefore the cdf of a discrete random variable. This should be stated somewhere in the statement or the solution. Apart from this the question is correct.

Exam (11 questions) in Computational ProbabilityThis assignment tests your comprehension of the material presented in lectures ( and labs ) up to and including the lecture on Thursday 7th November. Please answer the questions without the aid of a computer ( calculators are allowable ) as you won't have access to one in the January examination. The questions require the calculation of either a specific number, making a true/false choice, or matching code to mathematics. The numeric data within a question will have been randomised ( generated form a highly specified template ).

Question in j's workspace
Choose from one of several pre-defined scenarios, and set variables to the corresponding values, defined in lists.
This question has three variables:
city,population, andpercent_like_chocolate. These differ for each city. We've defined a list for each variable, with the corresponding values. A variable calledscenariopicks a random position in the list, so the value ofcity, for example, iscities[scenario]. -
Question in Andreas's workspace
This is the question for week 9 of the MA100 course at the LSE. It looks at material from chapters 17 and 18.
Description of variables for part b:
For part b we want to have four functions such that the derivative of one of them, evaluated at 0, gives 0; but for the rest we do not get 0. We also want two of the ones that do not give 0, to be such that the derivative of their sum, evaluated at 0, gives 0; but when we do this for any other sum of two of our functions, we do not get 0. Ultimately this part of the question will show that even if two functions are not in a vector space (the space of functions with derivate equal to 0 when evaluated at 0), then their sum could nonetheless be in that vector space. We want variables which statisfy:
a,b,c,d,f,g,h,j,k,l,m,n are variables satisfying
Function 1: x^2 + ax + b sin(cx)
Function 2: x^2 + dx + f sin(gx)
Function 3: x^2 + hx + j sin(kx)
Function 4: x^2 + lx + m sin(nx)
u,v,w,r are variables satifying
u=a+bc
v=d+fg
w=h+jk
r=l+mn
The derivatives of each function, evaluated at zero, are:
Function 1: u
Function 2: v
Function 3: w
Function 4: r
So we will define
u as random(-5..5 except(0))
v as -u
w as 0
r as random(-5..5 except(0) except(u) except(-u))
Then the derivative of function 3, evaluated at 0, gives 0. The other functions give non-zero.
Also, the derivative of function 1 + function 2 gives 0. The other combinations of two functions give nonzero.We now take b,c,f,g,j,k,m,n to be defined as \random(-3..3 except(0)).
We then define a,d,h,l to satisfy
u=a+bc
v=d+fg
w=h+jk
r=l+mnDescription for variables of part e:
Please look at the description of each variable for part e in the variables section, first.
As described, the vectors V3_1 , V3_2 , V3_3 are linearly independent. We will simply write v1 , v2 , v3 here.
In part e we ask the student to determine which of the following sets span, are linearly independent, are both, are neither:both: v1,v2,v3
span: v1,v1+v2,v1+v2+v3, v1+v2+v3,2*v1+v2+v3
lin ind: v1+v2+v3
neither: v2+v3 , 2*v2 + 2*v3
neither:v1+v3,v1-2*v3,2*v1-v3
neither: v1+v2,v1-v2,v1-2*v2,2*v1-v2 -

Question in BS11001 questions
A random heating question, that randomly picks a material, and then heats it through either one or two phase changes, provides an example graph of the heating with scaled temperature ranges (though not with scaled latent and specific heats), and a table with the suitable constants.

Question in Emma's workspace
Update: you can now use the conditional visibility button to do this more easily - see the documentation.
If the statement or advice for your question differs greatly depending on a random variable (for instance, if you're picking from a selection of scenarios), you only want to show content for the relevant scenario.
This question shows one way of doing that.
