Math 110 - Chapter 5,6,7,8,9 Terms with
more than 115 correct answers.
Routing Problems - ANSWER- problems concerned with routing the delivery of good to
services to a set of destinations

Street-Routing Problems - ANSWER- problems where a specified set of connections
(roads, bridges, edges) must be traveled at least once

Vertex Set - ANSWER- the set of vertices of a graph

Edge List - ANSWER- a list of all the edges of a graph

Adjacent Vertices - ANSWER- two vertices connected by an edge

Loop - ANSWER- an edge that connects a vertex with itself

Multiple Edges - ANSWER- two or more edges connecting the two same vertices

Degree - ANSWER- number of edges meeting at the vertex

Odd (Even) Vertex - ANSWER- a vertex of odd (even) degree

Clique - ANSWER- a set of vertices with the property that any two are adjacent

Simple Graph - ANSWER- a graph with no loops or multiple edges

Isolated Vertex - ANSWER- a vertex of degree 0

Adjacent Edges - ANSWER- two edges with a shared vertex

Path - ANSWER- a sequence of edges each adjacent to the next, with no edge included
more than once, and starting and ending at different vertices

Circuit - ANSWER- same as a path but starting and ending at the same vertex

Length - ANSWER- number of edges in a path or a circuit

Euler Path - ANSWER- a path that travels along each edge of a graph once and only
once

Euler Circuit - ANSWER- a circuit that travels along each edge of a graph once and only
once

Connected Graph - ANSWER- a graph such that there is a path going from any vertex
to any other vertex

Disconnected Graph - ANSWER- a graph that is disconnected; it has two or more
connected components

Components - ANSWER- the connected "pieces" that make up a graph

Bridge - ANSWER- an edge in a connected graph without which the graph would be
disconnected
Random Variable - ANSWER- a variable whose value is a numerical outcome of a
probability experiment

discrete random variable - ANSWER- a random variable that can take one of a finite
number of distinct outcomes

examples of discrete random variables - ANSWER- 1. The number that comes up on a
roll of a dice.

2. The number of siblings a randomly chosen person has.

continuous random variables - ANSWER- random variables that can take on any value
in an interval

examples of continuous random variables - ANSWER- 1. The height of a randomly
chosen college student.

2. The amount of electricity used to light a randomly selected classroom.

probability distribution - ANSWER- specifies the probability for each possible value of
the random variable

Properties of a probability distribution - ANSWER- A. 0 ≤ P(x) ≤ 1 for every possible x-
value
[Every value of P(x) is between 0 and 1]

B. ΣP(x) = 1
[If you add up every P(x), you get 1]

Example: Decide if the following is a probability distribution:

, Math 110 - Chapter 5,6,7,8,9 Terms with
more than 115 correct answers.
x-values: 1, 2, 3, 4
P(x): 0.25, 0.65 -0.3, 0.11 - ANSWER- This is not a probability distribution. P(x=3) = -
0.3, which is not between 0 and 1.

Example: Four patients have made appointments to have their blood pressure checked
at a clinic. Let X be the number of them that have high blood pressure. The probability
distribution of X is:

x-values: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
P(x): 0.23, 0.41, 0.27, 0.08, 0.01

(a) Find P(2 or 3)
(b) Find P(More than 1)
(c) Find P(At least 1) - ANSWER- First: Verify that it is a probability distribution
0.23 + 0.41 + 0.27 + 0.08 + 0.01 = 1
Notice that the events are mutually exclusive.

(a) P(2 or 3) = P(2) + P(3) by the addition rule.
= 0.27 + 0.08
= 0.35

(b) P(More than 1) = P(2) + P(3) + P(4)
= 0.27 + 0.08 + 0.01
= 0.36

(c) P(At least 1) = P(1) + P(2) + P(3) +P(4)
= 0.41 + 0.27 + 0.08 +0.01
= 0.77

mean of a random variable - ANSWER- Provides a measure of center for the probability
distribution of a random variable


NOTE: The mean is a measure of center of the probability distribution.

Calculating the Mean of a random variable - ANSWER- μx = Σ[x*P(x)]

The mean of a random variable = sum of all [x * P(x)]

Example: A computer monitor is composed of pixels. It is not uncommon for a few of
these to be defective. Let X represent the number of defective pixels on a randomly
chosen monitor. The probability distribution of X is as follows. Find the mean number of
defective pixels:
