Question

We take 8 identical slips of paper, write the number 0 on one of them, the number 1 on three of the slips, the number 2 on three of the slips and the number 3 on one of the slips. The slips are folded. Put in a box and throughly mixed. One slip is drawn at random from the box. If X is the random variable denoting the number written on the drawn slip, find the probability distribution of X.

Answer 1

Answer:

P(0) = 1/8

P(1) = 3/8

P(2) = 3/8

P(3) = 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total slips = 8

0 written on 1

1 written on 3

2 written on 3

3 written on 1

P(0) = 1/8

P(1) = 3/8

P(2) = 3/8

P(3) = 1/8
