An ordinary (fair) coin is tossed 3 times. Outcomes are thus triples of "heads" (h) and "tails" (t) which we write hth, ttt, etc. For each outcome, let R be the random variable counting the number of heads in each outcome. For example, if the outcome is hhh, then =Rhhh3. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of R as follows: =X−2R2−4R3. The values of X are given in the table below. Outcome hhh tht ttt hth htt thh hht tth Value of X 3 −5 −3 −3 −5 −3 −3 −5 Calculate the values of the probability distribution function of X, i.e. the function pX. First, fill in the first row with the values of X. Then fill in the appropriate probabilities in the second row. Value x of X pXx

6 The blood pressure of a diabetic taken at random has a normal distribution with mean 126 and variance 60. The blood pressure of a non-diabetic taken at random has a normal distribution with mean 121 and variance 40. Let X d be the average blood pressure of four diabetics taken at random and X n be the average blood pressure of four non-diabetics taken at random. Find Prob( X d > X n). Hint: Define D by D= X d - X n, find the mean and the variance of D and then calculate the probability that D>0.
A nature reserve has one bird of an uncommon species which frequents the large expanse of reed beds there. It is found that if a birdwatcher arrives at the path adjoining the reed beds, the probability that he or she is still waiting there to see the bird a time y later, where y is measured in minutes, is ·c ²²³ + 2 y c , y ≥0. 3 Find the probability that a birdwatcher spends between 2 and 4 minutes waiting to see the bird, and the mean and variance of the time that he or she waits there.
Harrison is a sports statistician and is interested in the number of strikeouts by a starting pitcher over the past five years for a certain professional baseball league. He randomly selects 471 games and records the number of strikeouts by one of the starting pitchers in the game, where the pitcher for the home or visiting team is selected at random. Harrison records the total number of strikeouts by the starting pitcher in that game, x, and the probability of each value, P(x), as shown in the table provided. Find the mean and the standard deviation of the probability distribution using a TI-83, TI-83 Plus, or TI-84 graphing calculator. Round the mean and standard deviation to three decimal places.
