Q4. A type of chocolate bar contains, with probability 0.1, a prize voucher. Whether or not a bar contains a voucher is independent of other bars. A hungry student buys 8 chocolate bars. Let X denote the number of vouchers that she finds. (a) What is the distribution of X? How likely is it that the student finds no vouchers? (b) Calculate the expected number of vouchers that she will find and also find the standard deviation. (e) How likely is it that she finds at least two vouchers?

Q4.
A type of chocolate bar contains, with probability 0.1, a prize voucher. Whether or not a bar
contains a voucher is independent of other bars. A hungry student buys 8 chocolate bars. Let X denote the
number of vouchers that she finds.
(a) What is the distribution of X? How likely is it that the student finds no vouchers?
(b) Calculate the expected number of vouchers that she will find and also find the standard deviation.
(e) How likely is it that she finds at least two vouchers?
