A frog is sitting exactly in the middle of a board that is five feet long. Every ten seconds he jumps one foot to the left or one foot to the right, at random. You want to use simulation to estimate the probability that he jumps off the board in sixty seconds or less. (For example, if he jumps LLRLRL, he is still on the board, on the left-most square. If he jumps LLRLL, he has jumped off the board in fifty seconds.) Required:
Describe how you would use the digits of a random number table to carry out this simulation.

Since the Frog makes a Jump every 10 seconds

   ( using the digits on a random number table )

Step-by-step explanation:

A frog sitting exactly in the middle of a board which is 5ft long : frog is 2.5 ft from the edge of the board

every 10 seconds the frog jumps ; L or R

If he jumps ; LLRLRL ( still on Board on the left-most square )

if he jumps ; LLRLL ( He is off the Board in fifty seconds )

Since the Frog makes a Jump every 10 seconds

   ( using the digits on a random number table )

to find the unit price, we must figure out the cost of one item (in this case one dish towel).   to do this, we divide the total price ($7.92) by the number of items bought (for this problem it is 8, because there are eight dish towels in one pack).  

$7.92/8 = $0.99

therefore, the unit price, or the price of one dish towel, is $0.99.

hope this !
