P(a,b) = P(a-b,b) if a>= b and
P(a,b) = a if a < b
it is given that P(a,7) = 4; P(a,11) = 6 and P(a,13) = 3.
Find P(a,17), if ‘a’ is a positive integer between 2000 and 3000.

We have 2 randomly generated no.s A and B between 0 and 1.
We r given only B. and we have to tell weather B > A or B < A.
there r 2 approaches:
1. If B > .5, always say B>A otherwise B
2. Generate another random no. say C, now, if CA otherwise say B
Which approach has high probability to give correct answer and why?

Plese someone help me with this proof...i need to know HOW to do it in two day!! Proofs are confusing to me...please help!!
Proof: Prove that if a funtion is increasing on [a,b] then f(x) is one-to-one...use definitions in your proof if possible.

Full Q: A quality control engineer samples 5 from a large lot of manufactured firing pins and checks for defects. Unknown to the inspector, 3 of the 5 sampled firing pins are defective. The engineer will test the 5 pins in a randomly selected order until a defective is observed (in which the case the entire lot will be rejected). Let y be the number of firing pins the QC engineer must test. Find and graph the probability distribution of y,
My understanding: y should be 1, 2, and 3, since by the 3rd pin, the defect will definitely be it (if not on the first two) because of the 3/5 probability and sample size of 5. The prob that the first item drawn is a defect is p(y=1) = 3/5 -- this is correct.
For p(y=2) I figured (2/5)(3/) -- wrong! same for p(y=3)...
The answers given are: p(2)=3/10 , p(3)=1/10
I don't understand how......

At the local Sunday School, the teacher brought in some puppies. There were
20 more children than puppies. In the corner of the room, the teacher had
an ant's nest. In the nest were exactly 10 times more ants than children.
In total, including the teacher, the children, the puppies and the
ants,there were 1440 legs in the room.
