There are 4 balls in an urn, of which 3 balls are white and 1 ball isblack. You do the following:• draw a ball from the urn at random, note its colour, do not return theball to the urn;• draw a second ball, note its colour, return the ball to the urn;• finally draw a third ball and note its colour.(i) Describe the corresponding discrete probability space(Ω, F, P). [9 Marks](ii) Consider the following event,A: Among the first and the third balls, one ball is white, the other is black.Write down A as a subset of the sample space Ω and find its probability, P(A)

Let (Ω, F, P) be a probability space and let X : Ω → R be a randomvariable whose probability density function is given by f(x) = 12 |x|e−|x| forx ∈ R.(i) Find the characteristic function of the random variable X.[8 Marks](ii) Using the result of (i), calculate the first two moments of therandom variable X, i.e., E(Xn) for n = 1, 2. [6 Marks]Total marks 16 (iii) What is the variance of X?

Let X be a random variable with the standard normal distribution, i.e.,X has the probability density functionfX(x) = 1/√2π e^-(x^2/2)2 .Consider the random variablesXn = 20(3 + X6) ^1/2n e ^x^2/n+19 , x ∈ R, n ∈ N.Using the dominated convergence theorem, prove that the limit exists and find it limn→∞E(Xn)
