if n is a positive integer, how many integers from 0 through 2n must you pick in order to be sure of getting at least one that is odd? incorrect: your answer is incorrect. how many integers must be picked in order to be sure of getting at least one that is even?



Answer :

Therefore , the we need to pick n + 2 numbers  to be sure of random selection is an odd number.

What is random selection?

In statistic, a simple random sample is a subset of people chosen at random from a larger group, all of whom were chosen with the same probability. This procedure involves choosing a sample at random.

Here,

You must choose n + 2 numbers at random in order to guarantee that you will get at least one odd number.

Since n is a positive integer, the following values of n are possible:

{1, 2, 3, 4, ...}

Let's assume n = 1.

Now, in order to guarantee that you choose at least one odd integer from 0 to 2n = 2*1 = 2, how many must you choose (at random)?

There are three numbers from 0 to 2:

0, 1, 2

If you choose these at random, selecting all three digits will guarantee that you receive an odd number.

From 0 to 2*n, there are the following options if n = 2.

0, 1, 2, 3, 4

Five choices.

If you wish to choose at least one odd number for certainty after picking 3 even numbers, you must choose 4 numbers.

From 0 through 2*n, if n = 3, we get:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Since 4 of these are even, you must choose 5 of them to guarantee an odd number.

The amount of even numbers is always n + 1, therefore given a random integer n, we will have n + 1 even numbers from 0 to 2n. Therefore, if we want to be certain that we are selecting an odd number at random, we must choose n + 2 numbers.

Therefore , the we need to pick n + 2 numbers  to be sure of randomly selecting an odd number.
