P and can
Therefore each binomial trial can be thought of as producing a value of a random variable associated with that trial and taking the values 0 and 1, with probabilities Q and P respectively.
The policy may not be unique but the maximum value of P certainly is, and once the policy is specified this maximum can be calculated by ( 2 ) and ( 3 ) as a function of the feed state Af.
Quantum states of a particle and an antiparticle can be interchanged by applying the charge conjugation ( C ), parity ( P ), and time reversal ( T ) operators.
100 cc and P = 2. 50E6 pascals, so we can solve for temperature by simple algebra:
Thus, intuitionists are ready to accept a statement of the form " P or Q " as true only if we can prove P or if we can prove Q:
More technically, the law is concerned with the speedup achievable from an improvement to a computation that affects a proportion P of that computation where the improvement has a speedup of S. ( For example, if an improvement can speed up 30 % of the computation, P will be 0. 3 ; if the improvement makes the portion affected twice as fast, S will be 2.
In the case of parallelization, Amdahl's law states that if P is the proportion of a program that can be made parallel ( i. e., benefit from parallelization ), and ( 1 − P ) is the proportion that cannot be parallelized ( remains serial ), then the maximum speedup that can be achieved by using N processors is
As an example, if P is 90 %, then ( 1 − P ) is 10 %, and the problem can be sped up by a maximum of a factor of 10, no matter how large the value of N used.
P estimated in this way can then be used in Amdahl's law to predict speedup for a different number of processors.
which can be interpreted as the linear interpolant of corresponding points on the linear Bézier curves from P < sub > 0 </ sub > to P < sub > 1 </ sub > and from P < sub > 1 </ sub > to P < sub > 2 </ sub > respectively.
Writing B < sub > P < sub > i </ sub >, P < sub > j </ sub >, P < sub > k </ sub ></ sub >( t ) for the quadratic Bézier curve defined by points P < sub > i </ sub >, P < sub > j </ sub >, and P < sub > k </ sub >, the cubic Bézier curve can be defined as a linear combination of two quadratic Bézier curves:

In the primary decomposition theorem, it is not necessary that the vector space V be finite dimensional, nor is it necessary for parts ( A ) and ( B ) that P be the minimal polynomial for T.
The first possibility requires that there be a line through P which meets **zg in Af points ; ;
the second requires that there be a line through P which meets **zg in Af points.
The photocathode sensitivities S, phosphor efficiencies P, and anode potentials V of the individual stages shall be distinguished by means of subscripts 1, and 2, in the text, where required.
In general, P is a function of V and the current density, but it shall here be assumed as a constant.
Let P be the root of the unbalanced subtree, with R and L denoting the right and left children of P respectively.
* If the balance factor of P is-2 then the right subtree outweighs the left subtree of the given node, and the balance factor of the right child ( R ) must be checked.
* If the balance factor of P is 2, then the left subtree outweighs the right subtree of the given node, and the balance factor of the left child ( L ) must be checked.
In addition to the balancing described above for insertions, if the balance factor for the tree is 2 and that of the left subtree is 0, a right rotation must be performed on P. The mirror of this case is also necessary.
In particular, we cannot in general claim that " P or not P " is true ( the law of Excluded Middle ), since in some cases we may not be able to prove the statement " P " nor prove the statement " not P ".
For example, P might be the circle with radius 1 and center ( 0, 0 ): P =

Howard estimated that 25, 000 members had left to join such groups.
