Take these probabilitiies: |
For several values of the exponent q we compute p1q,
p2q, p3q, and p4q, and
also the sum |
We show for larger positive q, S(q) is approximately equal to p4q, and for larger negative q, S(q) is approximately equal to p1q. |
Complete this table and make the appropriate deductions. |
  q   |   p1q   |   p2q   |   p3q   |   p4q   |   S(q)   |
  2   |   |   |   |   |   |
  5   |   |   |   |   |   |
  10   |   |   |   |   |   |
  -2   |   |   |   |   |   |
  -5   |   |   |   |   |   |
  -10   |   |   |   |   |   |
Here are the answers.
