What is the probability that a hand of 9 cards has three cards of one rank, three cards of asecond rank, and three cards of a third rank (for example, three A's, three 4's, and three K's)? A standard deck of playing cards consists of 52 cards. Each card has a rank and a suit. There are 13possible ranks (A, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K), 4 possible suits (spades, clubs, hearts, diamonds),and 13 cards in each suit (one of each rank).A hand of 9 cards is drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards (assume all outcomes are equallylikely).For each of the following questions, you should write your answer as an expression. Do not give thefinal numeric value. For example, you should write C(4, 2)/24) instead of 0.375.

A deck of cards contains 52 cards with four suits: club, diamond, heart and spade ranging in values from 2, ... to 10, Jack, Queen, King and Ace. Ace has the highest value in the same suit. Cards can be compared using the face value. A card with higher face value is bigger than a card with lower face value. If two cards have the same face value, then the suit determines the order. Club is smaller than diamond which is smaller than heart which is smaller than spade. For example: club 2 < diamond 2 < heart 2 < spade 2 if compared. Write an interactive Java program that allows a user to randomly pick a card from the deck of 52 cards (using a random number between 1 and 4 to represent the four suits: club, diamond, heart and spade and then another random number to represent the face value) to play. Show the suit and face value of the user card. Then the program acts as a card dealer which randomly draws another card and displays the card (again showing the suit and face value of…
One variation on the game of nim is described in Luger. The game begins with a single pile of stones. The move by a player consists of dividing a pile into two piles that contain an unequal number of stones. For example, if one pile contains six stones, it could be subdivided into piles of five and one, or four and two, but not three and three. The first player who cannot make a move loses the game. (5.1) Draw the complete game tree for this version of Nim if the start state consists of six stones. (5.2) Perform a minimax evaluation for this game. Let 1 denote a win and 0 a loss.

Bowling involves 10 frames. Each frame starts with 10 pins. The bowler has two throws to knock all 10 pins down. The total score is the sum of pins knocked down, with some special rules. For the first 9 frames: If all 10 pins are knocked down on a frame's first throw (a "strike"), that frame's score is the previous frame plus 10 plus the next two throws. (No second throw is taken). If all 10 pins are knocked down after a frame's second throw (a "spare"), that frame's score is the previous frame plus 10 plus the next throw. In the 10th frame, if the bowler's first throw is a strike, or the first two throws yields a spare, the bowler gets a third throw. The 10th frame's score is the previous frame's score plus the pins knocked down in the 10th frame's two or three throws. Given integers represents all throws for a game, output on one line each frame's score followed by a space (and end with a newline). Note that the number of throws may be as few as 11 (strikes in first 9 frames,…

One hundred tickets, numbered 1, 2, 3, . . . , 100, are sold to 100 different people for a drawing.Four different prizes are awarded, including a grand prize. How many ways are there to awardthe prizes if:a) the person holding ticket 35 wins the grand prize?b) the person holding ticket 64 wins one of the prizes?c) the person holding ticket 18 does not win a prize?d) the people holding tickets 30 and 50 both win prizes?
Required: Amitabh had a magical cat. That cat once fell down an empty well. As the walls of the well were not completely vertical, the cat could climb up the well. In one day, the cat can climb 1 unit height and the height of the well is h units. The cat starts at the bottom. Every day, a cat would divide into 2 cats. One of them would climb up 1 unit. The other would wait for help. But while waiting it would fall asleep and roll down 1 unit, unless it is already at the bottom, in which case it just remains there. When a cat would reach the top, it would run home toAmitabh. (Schrodinger doesn't know that some of the cats are in a well and so he can't rescue them). It has been d days since the cat fell into the well. How many cats would come out of the well today? You would notice that the number of cats grows very large with each passing day, so output the answer modulo 10^9+7. d = 0 means that the cat has fallen just now and so there's just one cat at the bottom of the well. So you…
Correct answer will be upvoted else Multiple Downvoted. Don't submit random answer. Computer science. anglers have recently gotten back from a fishing excursion. The I-th angler has gotten a fish of weight man-made intelligence. Anglers will flaunt the fish they got to one another. To do as such, they initially pick a request where they show their fish (every angler shows his fish precisely once, in this way, officially, the request for showing fish is a stage of integers from 1 to n). Then, at that point, they show the fish they discovered by the picked request. At the point when an angler shows his fish, he may either become glad, become dismal, or stay content. Assume an angler shows a fish of weight x, and the most extreme load of a formerly shown fish is y (y=0 if that angler is quick to show his fish). Then, at that point: in the event that x≥2y, the angler becomes cheerful; in the event that 2x≤y, the angler becomes miserable; in the event that none of these two…
QUESTION THREEConsider the thirsty person problem given below: To drink, a thirsty person must have three things; water, ice and a glass. There are three thirsty people, each having a different one (and only one) of the three required items. A fourth person, a server has unlimited supply of all three items. If nobody is drinking, the server places two of the three items (chosen at random) onto table. Thirsty person who can make a drink from those two items will pick them up and drink a glass of ice water. When done, thirsty person will notify the server and the process will repeat. Write a process that will control the thirsty person and the server using semaphores. (i) What is a critical section in code?Explain the three properties that any solution to the Critical Section Problem should guarantee.Explain the role the Operating System plays in Garbage-In-Garbage-Out (GIGO).
Bus timetables specify to the second the exact arrival and departure time of each bus on each stop. You need to pay for the full fare of every bus you ride and different bus lines charge different fees , but they are flat fees (independent of distance travelled on the line) A travel plan is a sequence of stop-time pairs where stop is a location of a bus stop and time is when we arrive at that stop. The plan is feasible if for any two consecutive pairs (a, t) and (b, t′) in the plan there exists a bus that departs after t and arrives at b at exactly t′. That is, a travel plan does not allow us to walk between stops. Assuming that no two buses arrive at the same time at the same stop, a feasible plan uniquely identifies the bus lines that we need to take to realize the plan. The cost of the plan is the sum of the fares we need to pay. Your task is to design an efficient algorithm that given a departure time t, an arrival time t′, an origin stop a and a destination stop b, finds the…
The game of Pig is a simple two-player dice game in which the first player to reach 100 or more points wins. Players take turns. On each turn, a player rolls a single six-sided die: • If the player rolls a 1, then the player gets no new points and it becomes the other player's turn. • If the player rolls 2 through 6, then he or she can either o ROLL AGAIN or o HOLD: At this point, the sum of all rolls for that turn is added to the player's overall total score and it becomes the other player's turn. Write a Java program that plays the game of Pig, where one player is a human and the other is the computer. When it is the human's turn, the program should show the score of both players and the previous roll. Allow the human to input whether to roll again or hold. The computer program should play according to the following rules: Keep rolling when it is the computer's turn until it has accumulated 20 or more points, then hold. • If the computer wins or rolls a 1, then the turn ends…
