Question

Find the value of the constant k such that pX(x) = kpx

, x = 1, 2, 3, ..., 0 < p < 1 is a

proper mass function.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the value of k, if x−1 is a factor of p(x) in each of the following cases:

(i) p(x)=x

2

+x+k

(ii) p(x)=2x

2

+kx+

2

(iii) p(x)=kx

2

−

2

x+1

(iv) p(x)=kx

2

−3x+k
