In the urn we have a white, b red and c black balls. We draw with replacement. Calculate the expected number of white balls, which are drawn until we drew black ball for the k-th time. My solution: The expected number of draws till be draw black ball for the k-th time is: $$(\frac{a+b+c}{c})^k$$ That should be cor...

Let $f:[1,\infty)\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be continuous and absolutely integrable. Show that $f^2$ is absolute integrable on $[1,\infty)$. My solution: Because $f$ is contiuous and absolutely integrable, $f$ will be eventually zero: $\lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}f(x)=0$. So $|f|^2<|f|$ is true for sufficient large val...

We have $\frac{d}{dx}((1-x^2)^\frac{1}{2}\frac{dy}{dx}) + n^2(1-x^2)^\frac{1}{2}y=0$ for integer $n\geq0$, and the question says to substitute $x=\cos z$, which leads to $y''(z) + n^2y(z)=0$, and then solving gives $y(x) = A\cos(n\arccos(x)) + B\sin(n\arccos(x))$. The question then says to sh...

As you can find in e.g. Section 3 of [O'Connor's SDG notes](https://arxiv.org/abs/0805.3307), the real line object $R$ of Smooth Infinitesimal Analysis satisfies the following: $$\forall x \in R.~x \neq 0 \rightarrow \exists y \in R. xy = 1$$ This means that if you can prove that some number $x$ is not equal to $0$,...

Suppose we want to prove that a property P is true for every integer in $ℕ_{odd}$ = $\{1,3,5,7,9,...\}$. Consider the following induction mechanism: 1. Base case: Verify the property P(1) 2. Inductive step: Prove that for all k ≥ 1, P(k) ⇒ P(k + 1) (a) Why might the above mechanism not constitute a valid proo...
I have 2 equal sized groups of people and each group selected A, B, or C for 6 questions. The first group was given no guideline and the second group was given a guideline. I have a hypothesis that the guideline caused people to answer the questions a specific way, and thus the answers in the second group would be more...
is there a statistical test for two categorical variables to compare how concentrated they are?
Note that $P(1)$ is true, but $P(2)$ is not true, so you can't prove that $P(n)\implies P(n+1)$. To prove $P(n)$ for all odd $n$, can you show that $P(n)\implies P(n+2)$ using $2^{n+2}+3^{n+2}=4(2^n)+9(3^n)=4(2^n+3^n)+5(3^{n})$?

Is $C_{p}^{\infty}(U)=C_{p}^{\infty}(M)$ as sets and $C_{p}^{\infty}(M)\cap C_{q}^{\infty}(M)=\emptyset$?
I was doing some algebra today and I came across the term 'purely inseparable extension'. However, I came across two different definitions of this term. We consider algebraic extensions and write $p$ = char($K$). The definitions go as follows: > A field extension $E/K$ is purely inseparable if and only if for eve...
Let $(X_i, Y_i)_{i=1}^{\infty}$ be iid continuous random vectors, where $X_1$ have support $\mathcal{X}$. Let $B_n\subset \mathcal{X}$ be decreasing subsets such that $\cap B_n= x_0\in\mathcal{X}$. I want to show that $$ \sum_{i\leq n: X_i\in B_n}Y_i \overset{P}{\to} \mathbb{E}[Y_1\mid X_1=x_0]. $$ I assume ...
