Answer to Question #278680 in Combinatorics | Number Theory for Alex

Question

Suppose p=0.9 and n=4 ,C={0000,1010,1100}.Compute pC,v where

v=1100

Answer 1

$\Theta_p(C,1100)=\Phi_p(1100,1100)+\Phi_p(1100,0000)+\Phi_p(1100,1010)=$

$=p^4+p^2(1-p)^2+p^2(1-p)^2=$

$=0.9^4+0.9^2(1-0.9)^2+0.9^2(1-0.9)^2=0.6723$
