Answer #1

Let Xi shows the number on ith chip. Let P(Xi=xi) shows the probability of selecting Xi chip.

So,

X1+X2+ X3X4 4

Since each chip is independent from other so,

P(X P(X1 r1) P(X2 r2) P(X3 r3) P(X4 x4)

Following table shows the all possible selections and corresponding probabilities:

A C. D F G H K Chip 1, X1 Chip 2, X2 Chip 3, X3 Chip 4, X4 Xbar P(X1-x1) P(X2=x2) P(X3-x3) P(X4-x4) P(Xbar-xbar) 2 0.5 0.5 1

A. C E F G Н K. 43 2 2 2 2.25 0.3 0.3 0.3 0.2 0.0054 44 2 2 2 0.3 0.3 0.2 0.5 0.009 45 2 2 2 2.25 0.3 0.3 0.2 0.3 0.0054 46 2

Now we need to add the probabilities for same xbar. Following table shows the pdf of xbar:

Xbar P(Xbar=xbar)
1 0.0625
1.25 0.15
1.5 0.235
1.75 0.234
2 0.1761
2.25 0.0936
2.5 0.0376
2.75 0.0096
3 0.0016
