Solutions Manual – Leon-Garcia
Random Process - answers-generates outcomes that are determined purely by chance



Probability - answers-a number between 0 and 1 that describes the proportion of times the
outcome would occur in a very long series of trials



Law of Large Numbers - answers-states that if we observe more and more trials of any random
process, the proportion of times that a specific outcome occurs approaches its probability



Simulation - answers-imitates a random process in such a way that simulated outcomes are
consistent with real-world outcomes



Probability Model - answers-a description of a random process that consists of two parts: a list
of all possible outcomes and the probability of each outcome.



Sample Space - answers-the list of all possible outcomes



Event - answers-a subset of the possible outcomes from the sample space of a random process



Complement Rule - answers-the probability of A complement is equal to 1 minus the probability
of A



Mutually Exclusive - answers-two events are this if they have no outcomes in common, and
