Question 13 Not yet answered Points out of 4.00 Flag question Suppose that on the leeward side ofthe island of Oahu, in the small village of Nanakuli, about 40% of the residents are of Hawanan ancestry. Let 1 2 3 represent the number of people you must meet until you encounter the first person of Hawaiian ancestry in the village of Nanakuli. The formula for the probability distribution of the random variable n is given as Pn)-(0.40xo.60)-1 What is the...

7.Give an example of a discrete-type random variable with an infinite mean. (Give the p.m.f., and show that the mean is infinite.) 6. Suppose that X is a non-negative, integer-valued random variable. See if you can simplify k-1{x>k}. (I am using 1{x>k) as the indicator function of the event {X > k}. So if X = 5 and k = 3, then the indicator function is 1. On the other if X = 5 and k = 7, then the...
