B) three of the five steps in Monte Carlo analysis.
C) elements of physical simulation but not mathematical simulation.
D) the three steps involved in simulating a queuing problem.
E) advantages of simulation.

Monte Carlo Analysis

A statistical technique that uses random sampling and numerical experiments to estimate mathematical functions and simulate the behavior of complex systems.

Cumulative Probability Distribution

The accumulation of individual probabilities of a distribution.

  • Familiarize yourself with the methodologies used in undertaking a Monte Carlo simulation.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
These are indeed three of the five steps involved in Monte Carlo analysis, which is a type of mathematical simulation used to estimate the probability of different outcomes in a system by running simulations with random inputs. The other two steps are specifying the inputs and analyzing the outputs.
