You have a spinner that generates random numbers that are uniform between 0 and 1. You sum the spins until the sum is greater than one. What is the expected number of spins

Respuesta :

These are the expected numbers of spins that is P(N=n)=n−1/n!

According to the statement

Let N is the number of spins AND

Let S is the sums of spins until the sum is greater than one.

we know that the For N=1, P(S) = 0.

The value of expected random variables are

E(X)=μ=∑xP(x).

Put all the integers values in it and integrate.

According to statement condition the expected number of variables become

P(N=n)=P(Sn−1<1≤Sn)

P(N=n)= P(Sn−1 < 1) - P(Sn <1)

P(N=n)=1/(n−1)!−1/n!

P(N=n)=n−1/n!

So, these are the expected numbers of spins that is P(N=n)=n−1/n!
