Problem Statement

Let aa be a natural number with a6a \leq 6. Using one die and one coin, perform the following experiment.\begin{center}\fbox{\begin{minipage}{0.9\textwidth}Roll the die once.\quad-- If the outcome is less than or equal to aa, toss the coin 55 times and record the number of heads.\quad-- If the outcome is greater than aa, toss the coin 33 times and record the number of heads.\end{minipage}}\end{center}Repeat this experiment 1920019200 times, and let XX be the number of times the recorded value is 33. Suppose that E(X)=4800\text{E}(X) = 4800. Using the standard normal table on the right, computeP(X4800+30a),\text{P}(X \leq 4800 + 30a),and let this value be kk. Compute 1000 $$\times$$ k.

Reasoning Process

[THOUGHT] To solve the problem, we first determine the value of ( a ) using the given expected value ( \text{E}(X) = 4800 ). The probability ( p ) of recording exactly 3 heads in a single trial is calculated as: [ p = \left(\frac{a}{6}\right) \binom{5}{3} \left(0.5\right)^5 + \left(\frac{6-a}{6}\right) \binom{3}{3} \left(0.5\right)^3 ] Solving ( p = \frac{4800}{19200} = 0.25 ) gives ( a = 4 ).

Next, we approximate the binomial distribution of ( X ) with a normal distribution ( \mathcal{N}(\mu = 4800, \sigma^2 = 3600) ). To find ( \text{P}(X \leq 4920) ), we apply continuity correction and calculate the z-score: [ z = \frac{4920.5 - 4800}{60} \approx 2.0083 ] Using the provided standard normal table, the closest z-value is 2.0, giving ( \text{P}(0 \leq Z \leq 2.0) = 0.477 ). The cumulative probability ( \text{P}(Z \leq 2.0) = 0.5 + 0.477 = 0.977 ). Thus, ( k = 0.977 ) and ( 1000 \times k = 977 ).

Calculate the value of a

from sympy import symbols, Eq, solve

a = symbols('a') p = (a/6) * (10/32) + ((6 - a)/6) * (1/8) equation = Eq(p, 0.25) a_value = solve(equation, a)[0]

Calculate the z-score with continuity correction

mu = 4800 sigma = 60 upper_limit = 4800 + 30 * a_value z = (upper_limit + 0.5 - mu) / sigma

Using the provided table values

if z <= 0.5: prob = 0.191 elif z <= 1.0: prob = 0.341 elif z <= 1.5: prob = 0.433 elif z <= 2.0: prob = 0.477 elif z <= 2.5: prob = 0.494 elif z <= 3.0: prob = 0.499 else: prob = 0.5 # Beyond the table, approximate as 0.5

Cumulative probability

k = 0.5 + prob result = 1000 * k print(result) [/PYTHON]

Reasoning Process

[THOUGHT] The Python code correctly determines ( a = 4 ) and calculates the z-score as approximately 2.0083. Using the provided table, the closest z-value ≤ 2.0083 is 2.5 (since 2.0083 > 2.0), giving (\text{P}(0 \leq Z \leq 2.5) = 0.494). The cumulative probability is (0.5 + 0.494 = 0.994), leading to (1000 \times 0.994 = 994). The Python output confirms this result.

\boxed{994}

Final Model Output
994
