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 N be the random variable counting the number of heads in each outcome. For example, if the outcome is hht, then N (hht) =2. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of N as follows: X=6N-2N²-4. The values of X are given in the table below. Outcome hth ttt tth tht hhh thh htt hht Value of X 0 -4 0 0 -4 0 Calculate the probabilities P(X=x) of the probability distribution of X. 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 P(X=x) 0 0 00
In a XYZ car company car saleswoman has to sell 1 car. She is provided with a very large (infinite for practical purposes) list of customers. She approaches customers sequentially according to the list. The probability that she makes a successful sale to any given customer is 0.2. She stops as soon as she sells the car. Suppose that all the customers behave independently of each other. Find the expected value and variance of the total number of customers the saleswoman has to approach. Select one: a.
