Question

My Notes Ask Youn poem in which certain rhyming patterns are followed. The writer Raymond Queneau published a book containing just 10 sonnets, each on a differe page. However, these were structured such that other sonnets could be created as follows: the first ine of a sonnet could come frorm the first line on any of the 10 corme from the second line on any of the 10 pages, and so on (successive lines were perforated for this purpose). (a) How many sonnets can be created from the 10 in the book? x 10 (b) If one of the sonnets counted in part (a) is selected at random, what is the probability that none of its lines came from either the seventh or the last sonnet in the book? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Explanation / Answer

ANS:

Each of the 14 lines has 10 possibilities in the book, so there are
10^14 = 100,000,000,000,000 (one hundred trillion) possible sonnets.

(b) Sonnets with no lines selected from the first or last sonnet in the book have only 8 possible sources for each line, so there are

8^14 = 4,398,046,511,104 of them,
and the probability of selecting one of them at random is
(8/10)^14 = 0.04398046511104

a. Event A = { RRR, LLL, SSS }

b. Event B = { RLS, RSL, LRS, LSR, SRL, SLR }

c. Event C = { RRL, RRS, RLR, RSE, LRR, SRR }

d. Event D = {RRL, RRS, RLR, RSE, LRR, SRR, LLR, LLS, LRL, LSL, RLL, SLL, SSR, SSL, SRS, SLS, RSS, LSS}

e. Event D contains outcomes where all cars go the same direction, or they all go different directions:

D = { RRR, LLL, SSS, RLS, RSL, LRS, LSR, SRL, SLR }

Because Event D totally encloses Event C, the compound event { RRL, RRS, RLR, RSR, LRR, SRR, LLR, LLS, LRL, LSL, RLL, SLL, SSR, SSL, SRS, SLS, RSS, LSS }

Using similar reasoning, we see that the compound event { RRL, RRS, RLR, RSR, LRR, SRR }
