Sieber Semester: 1 (weeks 1-12) Timetable: Tuesday 12.10, Thursday 10.00, Friday 10:00. Prerequisites: MATH 30800 Mathematical Methods , and MATH 33000 Complex Function Theory , but if MATH 20900 Calculus 2 was taken in 2001-2, then Complex Function Theory is not required. Unit Aims This unit aims to enhance students' ability to solve the type of equations that arise from applications of mathematics to natural and technological problems by giving a grounding in perturbation techniques. Emphasis is placed on methods of developing asymptotic solutions. General Description of the Unit For most equations that arise in modelling applications it is unlikely that exact solutions can be found. Even convergent series approximations are often not available, or they are of limited use if they converge very slowly. Instead, asymptotic expansions can yield good approximations. They are typically divergent if summed to infinity but a few terms can often give excellent and well defined approximations.

71. Binomial Distribution IV. approximations to Normal Distribution. Consider a series of binomialexpansions with increasing powers (0 to 4), as presented below. http://www.visualstatistics.us/hotheobinomial.htm

Approximations to Normal Distribution Probability Probability is defined as a ratio of the number of expected (favorable or desired) outcomes to the number of possible outcomes. Binary Event A coin toss is an example of a binary event. There are only two possible outcomes (a head or a tail) on each trial and the probability of each outcome is .5. The two probabilities add up to 1.0. I. Toss one "Ideal" Coin All Possible Outcomes The number of possible outcomes, n, is given by the equation where k denotes the number of determinants and the base 2 stands for two mutually exclusive outcomes associated with each determinant. Toss a coin one time: k = 1 For one determinant, there are two possible outcomes. Probability of Each Unique Outcome Number of Heads Frequency and Proportion Probabilities Associated with the Pascal's Triangle Visualization Binomial Distribution for One Determinant Note that the abscissa for the binomial distribution is a discrete variable. II. Toss Two "Ideal" Coins All Possible Outcomes There are 4 possible outcomes: 2*2 = 4 Probability of Each Unique Outcome Each of the possible outcomes is equally likely.
