Suppose that Y takes on the values {0, 1, 2, 3}, each with probability 1/4. Take a random sample of 5 numbers from this distribu
tion. In how many possible samples can the sum of the five numbers (Y1 + Y2 + Y3 + Y4 + Y5) equal to 1? [Give the number of samples, not the proportion of possible samples]
The total number of samples that give this outcome is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Y takes values in {0,1,2,3}, For us to have that implies that all of them are zero but one. The one that is non-zero necessarily is equal to 1. To calculate the number of samples that give this outcome is equivalent to counting the total number of ways in which we can pick the i-index such that . Note that in this case we can either choose Y1 to be 1, Y2 to be 1 and so on. So, the total number of samples that give this outcome is 5.
if she paid the 15 already subtract it from the 155. Once you that you get 140 and if you break that inton groups of 35 *division* than you get 4. As in 4 months
