Women’s Health Survey: One-Sample Hotelling's T-Square Section In 1985, the USDA commissioned a study of women’s nutrition. Nutrient intake was measured for a random sample of 737 women aged 25-50 years. Five nutritional components were measured: calcium, iron, protein, vitamin A and vitamin C. In previous analyses of ...

To prove that some decision problem $P$ is NP-complete, my understanding is that it suffices to show that the problem is in NP [...] and to demonstrate that some known NP-complete problem $Q$ can be reduced to $P$ [...] by some kind of appropriate reduction in polynomial time. We can then say that we can solve $Q$ in p...

ok, suppose we have the set $U_1=[a,\frac{a+b}{2}) \cup (\frac{a+2}{2},b]$ where $a,b$ are rational. It is easy to see that there exists a countable cover which consists of intervals that converges towards, a,b and $\frac{a+b}{2}$. Therefore $U_1$ is not compact. Now we can construct $U_2$ by taking the midpoint of eac...

Decomposing the language $L$ into union or intersection of two simplerlanguages is useful to prove that L is regular, but it will not helpyou (in general) to prove that $L$ is not regular.

The underlying philosophy of constructivism in mathematics is that in order to prove that something exists, we need to "find" or "construct" it.

You're right about the second one, but your reasoning for both is sketchy.

Yeah, this software cannot be too easy to install, my installer is very professional looking, currently not tied into that code, but directs the user how to search for their MikTeX and or install it and does a test LaTeX rendering Some body like Zeta (on codereview) might be able to help a lot... I'm not sure if he doe...
A series has a constant difference between terms. For example, 3 + 7 + 11 + 15 + ….. + 99. We name the first term as a1. The common difference is often named as “ d”, and the number of terms in the series is n. We can find out the sum of the arithmetic series by multiplying the number of times the average of the last a...
A particle moves along the x-axis so that at time t its position is given by $x(t) = t^3-6t^2+9t+11$ during what time intervals is the particle moving to the left? so I know that we need the velocity for that and we can get that after taking the derivative but I don't know what to do after that the velocity would than ...
The Poisson Random Variable The Poisson random variable is a discrete random variable that counts the number of times a certain event will occur in a specific interval. Learning Objectives Apply the Poisson random variable to fields outside of mathematics Key Takeaways Key Points The Poisson distribution predicts the d...
