1. Suppose that, in Example 2.27, 400 units of food A, 600 units of B, and 600 units of C are placed in the test tube each day and the data on daily food consumption by the bacteria (in units per day) are as shown in Table 2.6.

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 R (hhh)=3. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of R as follows: X= 2R-2R^2-3. The values of X are given in the table below.
