Rework problem 5 in section 4.2 of your text, involving the selection of two students from a committee of students. Assume that the committee is made up of 3 males and 4 females. Two are selected at random, and a random variable X is defined to be the number of females selected. Fill in the table below to complete the probability density function. Be certain to list the values of X in ascending order. Value of X Probability 0 1 2

Please provide steps for how you got the solution to the problem provided below. A machine is used to produce one of each of two types of product (A and B) on alternating days, i.e., if A is produced today then B will be produced tomorrow and vice versa. Each day, there is a probability that the machine malfunctions. Malfunction probability after a day of operation is 0.03 when producing A and 0.07 when producing B. Once the machine malfunctions, it is no longer operable and will not be replaced until sometime in the future (beyond modeling horizon). Model the system as a Markov chain (give transition matrix on your paper). Suppose that on Monday product A was produced. Find the probability that the machine is still operable by the morning of Thursday. Your model should have a state ”malfunction”, which cannot transition to any other state other than itself.
