(f) Find the least value of r in a sample of 18 pairs of
observations from a bivariate normal population,
significant at 5% level of significance.
(a) There are two bags. The first bag contains 10 white
and 3 black balls and second bag contains 3 white
and 5 black balls. Two balls are drawn at random
5°
from the first bag and put into second bag. Then a
ball is drawn from second bag. Find the 13
probability that the ball drawn is a white ball.
(b) If X and Y are two independent random variables,
then show that:
4/6
Var (X+Y) = Var (X) + Var (Y)
(a) For a random variable X with mean μ = 10 and
variance o² = 4, apply Chebyshev's inequality to
calculate :
-(P-4)(Q-9)(20)
(i) P(5 < X < 15)
(ii) P(|X-10| ≥3)
(iii) P(|X-10| <3)
b) A car hire firm has two cars, which it hires out day
by day. The number of demands for a car on each
day is distributed as a Poisson variate with mean
