X is the number of dollars gained or lost each day playing cards. The distribution of X is below. Give the mean and variance of X. (Show work)
X P(X)
0 .30
1 .10
2 .50
3 .10
Solution:
| x | P(x) | x * P(x) | x2 * P(x) |
| 0 | 0.3 | 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.1 |
| 2 | 0.5 | 1 | 2 |
| 3 | 0.1 | 0.3 | 0.9 |
| Sum | 1 | 1.4 | 3 |
Mean =
X * P(X)
= 1.4
Variance
=
X 2 * P(X) -

4 persons each have playing cards, with person 1 having X1 cards, person 2 having X2 cards, person three having X3 cards and person 4 having X4 cards. The random variables of X1, X2, X3 and X4 are all independent and normally distributed with mean = 100 and SD = 24. 1) If Y = X1+X2+X3+X4 (all the cards of alle the persons), what is then E(Y)? What is Var(Y)? 2) Denoting A as the average no. of cards per...
