If the random variable X has the following probability distribution:
X 0 1 2 otherwise P(X) k 3k 5k 0
Match List-I with List-II
List-I List-II (A) k (I) (B) E (X) (II) (C) P (X ≤ 1) (III) (D) P (1 ≤ X ≤ 2) (IV)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- (A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III)
- (A) - (IV), (B) - (I), (C) - (II), (D) - (III)
- (A) - (IV), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (III)
- (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV)
If the random variable X has the following probability distribution:
| X | 0 | 1 | 2 | otherwise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| P(X) | k | 3k | 5k | 0 |
Match List-I with List-II
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| (A) k | (I) |
| (B) E (X) | (II) |
| (C) P (X ≤ 1) | (III) |
| (D) P (1 ≤ X ≤ 2) | (IV) |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- (A) - (II), (B) - (I), (C) - (IV), (D) - (III)
- (A) - (IV), (B) - (I), (C) - (II), (D) - (III)
- (A) - (IV), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (III)
- (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV)
Solution
The probability distribution has X taking values 0, 1, or 2, with probabilities k, 3k, and 5k respectively.
The sum of all probabilities must equal 1:
(A) matches with (IV)
The expected value is calculated as:
(B) matches with (I)
For X ≤ 1, the random variable can be 0 or 1:
(C) matches with (II)
For 1 ≤ X ≤ 2, the random variable can be 1 or 2:
(D) matches with (III)
The correct matching is:
(A) → (IV):
(B) → (I):
(C) → (II):
(D) → (III):
Therefore, the answer is Option 2: (A) - (IV), (B) - (I), (C) - (II), (D) - (III)
