If 41 people are at a party, what is the probability that more than two of them have the same birthday? Assume that there are 365 days in a year and all days are equally likely to be the birthday of a specific person.

Below is a list of properties that a group of people might possess. For each property, either give the minimum number of people that must be in a group to ensure that the property holds, or else indicate that the property need not hold even for arbitrarily large groups of people. (Assume that every year has exactly 365 days; ignore leap years.) (a) At least 2 people were born on the same day of the year (ignore year of birth)....

How many people do you have to assemble in a room (people picked at random from the general population) before there is at least an even chance (P = 0.5) that at least two have the same birthdate (e.g., February 4 or September 9)? Assume that the year has 365 days; that is, don’t worry about leap year. Hint: Check your answer by using the same method to calculate the probability that two people will have the same birthday if...

Use R to tackle the following problem Suppose there is a class of 23 people with birthdays given by the random variables X1, . . . , X23. Suppose that the random variables are independent and that each Xi has the property that P(Xi = k) = 1 365 for 1 ≤ k ≤ 365; thus we make the assumption that there are no leap years and that people are equally likely to be born on each day of the...
