There are 5 balls in a box, one red ball, one yellow ball, and three green balls. Assuming that the probability of each ball being drawn is equal, now randomly take a ball from the box. Please calculate (a) What is the expectation of the color of the ball? 2) What is the variance of the color of the ball?

I have 3 chickens where each of these chickens lays an egg with the probability 3/4 (independently). I sell each egg the chicken has laid for 8 coins. Work out the variance of the number of coins recieved.
Austin decided to give Taylor Swift another chance. So, he listened through all her songs from 2009. There were 8 in total. Let the random variable X be the number of songs in which she complained about some boy. The probability of complaining about a boy is 56%. (a) Is X a discrete or continuous random variable? How do you know? (b) What are the possible values of X? (c) Does X follow a distribution that we covered in class? If so, how do we know? Properly label the distribution.
Assume that three stop lights on the way to school are independent. Their time probabilities are P(Red)=0.4, P(Green)=0.5, and P(Yellow)=0.1 values. What is the probability of getting ALL THREE green lights on a trip to school?
A group of botanists is studying the distribution of carnations in a field. The field is divided into a number of equal sized squares. The mean number of carnations per square is assumed to be 3. The carnations are distributed randomly throughout the field. Find the probability that: (b) (i) there will be more than two carnations. (ii) either five or six carnations.
Illustrate the probability distribution if X is the random variable that represents the number of recovies.
Suppose 2 dice are rolled, and suppose the discrete variable x counts the number of 3’s that show up. Plot the probability distribution for x using a bar graph. What is the expected value for the random variable x? What is the variance for the random variable x?
Renee and Thomas live at the beach and collect seashells. The number of shells Renee collects on any given day, R, is approximately Normal with a mean of 58.2 shells and a standard deviation of 12.8 shells. The number of shells Thomas collects on any given day, T, is approximately Normal with a mean of 47.9 shells and a standard deviation of 11.5 shells. Assume the two random variables are independent of each other. What is the probability that on a randomly selected day the total number of shells collected by Renee and Thomas is 120 or more? 0.002 0.209 0.284 0.791
v essentiel |calculations. Part II Record your answer in the space provided. Show Canada. They ship a large number of packages from their warehouse in Delta, Ohio. Their goal have 95 percent of the shipments delivered in 4 days. For many years they have used Brown Truck Ic., but recently there have been complaints about slow and inconsistent delivery. A sample of 10 recent shipments handled by Brown Truck showed a standard deviation in delivery time of 1.25 days. A sample of 16 shipments by Rapid Package Service showed a standard deviation in their delivery time of 0.45 days. At the 0.05 significance level is there more variation in the Brown Truck delivery time? a. State the null and alternate hypotheses. Ho- b. State the decision rule. c. Compute the value of the test statistic. c. d. What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis? Interpret the result.
The acceptable level for insect filth in a certain food item is 2 insect fragments (larvae, eggs, body parts, and so on) per 10 grams. A simple random sample of 40 ten-gram portions of the food item is obtained and results in a sample mean of x=2.3 insect fragments per ten-gram portion. What is the probability a simple random sample of 40 ten-gram portions of the food item results in a mean of at least 2.3 P(x≥2.3)= (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
