In a certain forest, there are 6 couples of bears (couple 1, couple 2, ..., couple 6, each couple contains two distinct bears, a total of 12 distinct bears). They all get together for lunch and are seated randomly around a round table. We say that a certain couple is seated together if the two bears in the couple are seated in adjacent sits. Let X be the number of couples that are seated together, and let X; be the indicator of the event that the i'th couple is seated together. 1. We want to compute to expected number of couples that are seated together. 1. The probability that the i'th couple is seated together is 2. The expected value E(X;) is 3. The expected value E(X) is 2. We want to find the variance of the number of couples that are seated together. 1. If ij are distinct, then: 1. The probability that the i'th couple and the j'th couple are both seated together is 2. The total number of such pairs ij is 2. The variance Var(X) is
Suppose that 40 Malaysian Chinese are surveyed and they speak at least one of the three dialects, Cantonese, Hokkien or Hakka. It is found that 30 of them speak Cantonese, 20 speak Hokkien and 15 speak Hakka. It is also found that 3 of them speak all three dialects. How many of the surveyed Malaysian Chinese speak exactly two languages?

Suppose a man's occupation can be classified as professional, skilled worker, or unskilled worker. Suppose eighty percent of the sons of professional men are professionals, ten percent skilled workers, and ten percent unskilled workers. further suppose that sixty percent of the sons of skilled workers are skilled workers, twenty percent professional, and twenty percent unskilled. finally, in the case of unskilled workers, fifty percent of the sons are unskilled workers and twenty-five percent are in the other two categories. Assume each man has at least one son, and construct a Markov chain by tracing the occupation of a randomly selected son of a particular family over several generations. Construct the transition probabilities matrix. Find the probability that the randomly selected grandchild of an unskilled worker is a professional worker.
