How do I install purchased apps on ipad2?  It says I have purchased the apps but they are not installed.

I have just purchased an ipad2 and purchased 2 apps.  This is my first ipad.  The ipad says I have purchased these apps but they are not installed. I don't know how to install them.  Also I can only see them if I go to either the app store or the game center and click on purchased.  I would like them to show up on screen that shows when I open the ipad but maybe that only happens when they are installed?

Did you purchase them directly on the iPad or on your computer's iTunes ? If on your iPad in the App Store app then have you checked to see if they are on a different homescreen by swiping the homescreen to the left ? If they are on a different screen, and there are spaces on the first homescreen then you can move them :
Touch and hold any icon for a couple of seconds until the icons jiggle .
Arrange the icons by dragging them (don't drag too quickly). You can't leave gaps between icons on a page
to move them to a different screen drag them (not too quickly) and then hold them so that they are overhanging the edge of the screen - after a couple of seconds or so the display should change to the next/previous screen (depending on which edge you are holding it) and you can then place the icon.
Press the Home button to save your arrangement.
If you downloaded them on your computer then you can either connect your iPad to your computer and sync them across, or go into the App Store app on the iPad and re-download them via the Purchased tab (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)
You can download a copy of the iPad manual from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
