Please wait for a while (some days) before cross-posting and link to the previous question in the question body. (more) |

Please add that as (a part of) your answer. (more) |

As a mathematician, my first instinct is to suggest that if there is only one or two candidates or only one or two voters, the probability for someone to get at least half the votes is quite large. Any formula should be consistent with this. (more) |

Did visualizing the n = 2 case help you or your students? (more) |

You have some issues with which texts are in italics. Just a heads-up. (more) |

Good point. Maybe using the word "or" is warranted there. (more) |

Could you define more formally in the question how the points are distributed? A continuous distribution within a fixed square would presumably lead to probability zero for any given length, as there would be uncountably with possible lengths. (This is not a proper argument, just a guess.) (more) |

I have not seen this use of «mean» before, but maybe it is used somewhere. The world is a big place. (more) |

You have $T$ as $m \times n$, while both $x$ and $y$ and $n$-vectors. Might want to fix that. (more) |

Okay, but have you done yourself to create the understanding? Have you calculated with some examples, created visual representations, etc. of relevant problems? (more) |

How have you tried to understand this and what kind of results has it given you thus far? (more) |

This will help people in answering you, since it gives an idea of your abilities and may reveal potential misunderstandings. Writing it down also forces you to think about the problem and, with luck, might even end up in your solving it. (more) |

Please write the questions in your own words. This leads to learning and you might end up solving the problem even before posting it. (This is not to say quotes are not allowed; this is just a recommendation.) Writing a good question involves a baseline of understanding and research of the subject, w... (more) |

Area is the correct interpretation, yes. By experimentation and calculations you can find out whether this interpretation is consistent with how probabilities actually work and whether having this interpretation helps your understanding. You can also think what the corresponding interpretations with ... (more) |

Please add more context to the quote. A textbook, a news story, lecture notes? Signal processing or something else? (more) |

I would suggest you to calculate easy situations with simple independent events. First investigate multiplication and then the others, or maybe try without having one as the maximum probability and see what happens. I do suggest experimenting and investigating and calculating by yourself as much as p... (more) |

Exactly. Istiak, could you write down the assumptions of the theorem or the assumptions used in the proof? (more) |

The way I read this question, the "basis point" is a red herring not related to the question at all. Is it a typical answer you are not satisfied with? I that case, maybe remove it from the title and move the text about it to the end of the question under a suitable sub-heaving. (more) |

@celtschk I know. I would personally leave it as $1/\sqrt 3$, but that comes with quite a lot of practice and abstraction. But I do think that the evaluation is a nice basic task that allows checking for cognitive load, and worth a try. I was surprised how big the difference turned out to be; I was a... (more) |

Certainly depends on the wider context, but I wonder if you really have easier time calculating or manipulating that, in general. (more) |

Thanks; my interest is in a formula in specific, in this case, rather than something that lists all the possibilities. (more) |

There is mathematics about machine learning and applied mathematics done with machine learning. I suggest asking the question and seeing what the reception is. (more) |

@Stephan Kolassa Could you write an answer based on that? (more) |

You may want to split the long formulas to multiple lines. (more) |

@Peter Taylor Thanks, I am aware. @r~~ Thanks, I did not find a general solution in the papers. (more) |
