Let X represent the number of occupants in a randomly chosen car on a certain stretch of highway during morning commute hours. A survey of cars showed that the probability mass function of X is as follows. k 1 2 3 4 5 P(X=k) |0.61 0.10 0.11 0.03 0.15 a) P(X<4)= [Select] b) If a car is chosen at random, the probability that at most 2 occupants are in a car, during morning commute hours is [Select] c) In the long run, the mean number of occupants in a chosen car during morning commute hours is [Select] on average. d) The standard deviation, Std (X), for the number of occupants is [Select] . (For this question use the two formulas below) Var(X) = Σ (k − E(X))² · P(X = k) std(X) = √Var (X)

This is Involving drawing markers from a box of markers with ink and markers without ink. Assume that the box contains 17 markers: 14 that contain ink and 3 that do not contain ink. A sample of 4 markers is selected and a random variable Y is defined as the number of markers selected which do not have ink. Fill in the table below to complete the probability density function. Be certain to list the values of Y in ascending order.

Many random number generators allow users to specify the range of the random numbers to be produced. Suppose you specify that the random number Y can take any value between 0 and 6. Then the density curve of the outcomes has constant height between 0 and 6 and height O elsewhere.
