Answer: 1/5, 1/2, 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

no of cameras = 6

no of cameras defective = 3

no of cameras selected = 2

Let p(t):=P(X=t)

p(2)=m/n,

m=binomial(3,2)=3!/2!= 3

n=binomial(6,2)=6!/2!/4! = 15

p(3)= 3/15

= 1/5.

p(1)=m/n,

m=binomial(6,1)*binomial(2,2)=6!/1!/4!*2!/2!/0!= 7.5

n=binomial(6,2)= 15

p(2)= 7.5/15

= 1/2

p(0)=m/n,

m=0

p(0)=0

Answer:

a.

The probability of X

k                                             P(X=k)

0                                              0.25

1                                               0.5

2                                              0.25

b. The expected variable value of X; E(X) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

number of cameras = 6

numbers of defective  = 3

the probability of defective camera p = 3/6 = 0.5

sample size n = 2

Then X = {0,1,2}

Suppose X is the given variable that represents the number of defective cameras in the sample.

∴

X \sim Bin (n =2, p = 0.5)

The probability mass function of binomial distribution can be computed as :

P(X =x) = (^n_x) p^x (1-p)^{n-x}

For  ;

x = 0

The probability P(X=0)  = (^2_0) 0.5^0 (1-0.5)^{2-0}

P(X=0)  = \dfrac{2!}{0!(2-0)!} \times 1 \times 0.5^2

P(X=0)  =1\times 1 \times 0.25

P(X=0)  = 0.25

For :

x = 1

The probability P(X=1)  = (^2_1) 0.5^1 (1-0.5)^{2-1}

P(X=1)  = \dfrac{2!}{1!(2-1)!} \times 0.5^1 \times 0.5^1

P(X=1)  =2 \times 0.5 \times 0.5

P(X=1)  =0.5

For :

x = 2

The probability P(X=2)  = (^2_2) 0.5^2 (1-0.5)^{2-2}

P(X=2)  = \dfrac{2!}{2!(2-2)!} \times 0.5^2 \times 0.5^0

P(X=2)  =1 \times 0.5^2 \times 1

P(X=2)  =0.25

The probability of X

k                                             P(X=k)

0                                              0.25

1                                               0.5

2                                              0.25

The expected variable value of X can be computed as:

E(X) = np

E(X) = 2 × 0.5

E(X) = 1

Jaxon has $65 in his savings account. He deposits $15 every week. His father also deposits $25 into the account every time Jaxon
HACTEHA [7]
Part A:
<span>In the expression given, 65 + 15w + 25m: 65 = constant; 15 and 25 = coefficients; w and m = variables.</span>  
Thus, to define:
Constant is a number which the value is already fixed.
Variable is the unknown value in the algebraic expression.
Coefficient is a number which is placed before a variable that indicates how many times the variable is to be multiplied.

65 + 15w + 25m 
65 = 15 (1) + 25 (2)

Part B:
Let x be the savings account balance
W = # of weeks
M = frequency of mowing the lawn  

First, let’s use the expression given above: 15w + 25m.
Since we are solving for a constant, only the variables and coefficient of the expression given are to be used.  
Then, we substitute the variables’ corresponding values.
X = 15 (20) + 25 (3)
Therefore, the savings deposits will amount to:
X = 300 + 75 X = $375  

Part C:
$75 + w + 3m  
Constant will be $75.
Variables: w = no weekly deposit, m = 3
Coefficients: w = 1, m = remains at 25  

This is because we need to adjust the variables and coefficients to solve for the constant.
