If I turn on the TV, the probability is 1/4 that the first thing I see is a commercial. Let X be the random variable such that X = 0 if I don't see a commercial and X = 1 if I see a commercial. Then P(X = 0) = (1/4)^1*(3/4)^0 True False

Suppose that the genders of the three children of a certain family are soon to be revealed. Outcomes are thus triples of “girls” (g) and “boys” (b), which we write gbg, bbb, etc. For each outcome, let R be the random variable counting the number of girls in each outcome. For example, if the outcome is bbb, then R(bbb)=0. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of R as follows: X=R^2-2R-1. The values of X are given in the table below.
