A seminar class consists of eight students. Three are males and five are females. A sample of three students is to be selected at random, without replacement, from the class. Let X represent the number of males obtained in the sample. "Then X is a binomial random variable." Is the statement in quotes true or false?
True
False
Homework Answers
True.
X follows Binomial(n,p) where n=3 which is the sample size and p=3/8 as there are 3 males where number of students are 8 which means P(male)=3/8

7. An urn contains four black and eight white balls. A sample of five balls is selected from the urn repeatedly, each time with replacement of the selected balls (thus restoring the urn to its original state). Let E be the event that the selected sample contains at most two white balls. (a) Find the probability of E (b) What is the expected number of selections until E happens? Name the random variable used. (c) What is the probability that...
