2. The contracts for three independent construction jobs are to be assigned to one or more of four competing firms: Firm A, Firm B, Firm C, and Firm D. For each contract, assume that it is equally likely to be awarded to any of the four firms. Let X represent the number of contracts assigned to Firm A, Y the number of contracts assigned to Firm B, and Z the number of contracts assigned to Firm C. (a) Determine the...

1. We asked 6 students how many times they rebooted their computers last week. • There were 4 Mac users and 2 PC users. • The PC users rebooted 2 and 3 times. • The Mac users rebooted 1, 2, 2 and 8 times. Let Yi be a Bernoulli random variable representing the type of computer of a randomly chosen student (i.e., Y1 = 0 for MAC user, and Y1 = 1 for PC user) Let Y, be the number...

Of 9 students who took a statistics course, 4 earned an A, 3 earned a B, and 2 earned a C. 3 of the 9 students are selected at random. Let Y1 denote the number of students who earned an A and Y2 denote the number of students who earned a B among the 3 selected students. Find the joint probability mass function of Y1 and Y2.

An environmental engineer measures the amount (by weight of particulate pollution in air samples of a certain volume collected over two smokestacks at a coal-operated power plant. One of the stacks is equipped with a cleaning device. Let Y1 denote the amount of pollutant per sample collected above the stack that has no cleaning device and let Y2 denote the amount of pollutant per sample collected above the stack that is equipped with the cleaning device. Suppose that the relative...
