Here, we have some numbers: 5.3655, 28/5, 5 2/5, 33/6
Now, we will try to convert all of them into one format (decimal) 'cause it would be easy to compare:
28/5 = 5.6, 5 2/5 = 27/5 = 5.4, 33/6 = 5.5

Now, we have numbers: 5.3655, 5.6, 5.4, 5.5

We can easily see, 5.6 is greatest which was 28/5 originally

So, Your Final Answer would be Option B) 28/5

Hope this helps!

Flauer [41]

Answer:

a) f(x,y) = $\frac{\binom{3}{x}\binom{2}{y}\binom{3}{2-x-y}}{\binom{8}{2}}$ ; x = 0, 1 , 2; y = 0, 1 , 2; 0 ≤ x+y ≥ 2

b) = $\frac{9}{14}$

Step-by-step explanation:

joint probability is a function that characterizes the distribution of a random variable. If X and Y be two random variables then the joint probability will be P(X = x, Y=y)

Given Data,

X = The number of blue Pens

Y = The number of red Pens

possible outcomes(X, Y) are (0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 0), (1, 1), (0, 2), (2,0)
