Q1:
P(X = x) = c(3 - x)

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

P(X = 0) = c(3 - 0) = 3c
P(X = 1) = c(3 - 1) = 2c
P(X = 2) = c(3 - 2) = c
P(X = 3) = c(3 - 3) = 0

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 3c + 2c + c + 0 = 6c


6c = 1
c = 1/6

P(X <= 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)


P(X <= 2) = (1/6)(3 - 0) + (1/6)(3 - 1) + (1/6)(3 - 2)
P(X <= 2) = (1/6)(3) + (1/6)(2) + (1/6)(1)
P(X <= 2) = 3/6 + 2/6 + 1/6
P(X <= 2) = 6/6
P(X <= 2) = 1

X<=2 = 1

Q2:
P(X=10) , P(X=20) , E(X)=16

E(X) = (10 * P(X = 10)) + (20 * P(X = 20))


16 = (10 * P(X = 10)) + (20 * P(X = 20))

P(X = 10) + P(X = 20) = 1


P(X = 10) = 1 - P(X = 20)

16 = (10 * (1 - P(X = 20))) + (20 * P(X = 20))


16 = 10 - 10 * P(X = 20) + 20 * P(X = 20)
6 = 10 * P(X = 20)
P(X = 20) = 6/10
P(X = 20) = 0.6

P(X = 10) = 1 - P(X = 20)


P(X = 10) = 1 - 0.6
P(X = 10) = 0.4
Therefore, the probability distribution of X is:
P(X = 10) = 0.4
P(X = 20) = 0.6

Q4:
∫[0,½] kx³ dx = 1/6
(k/4)x^4 | [0,½] = 1/6
)k/4)(½)^4 - (k/4)(0)^4 = 1/6
(k/4)(1/16) = 1/6
(k/64) = 1/6
6k = 64
k = 64/6
k = 32/3

F(½) = ∫[0,½] f(x) dx = 1/6


F(½) = ∫[0,½] f(x

Q3:

P(X <= 2) = 0.9


X = 0, 1, and 2 = 0.9

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.9

P(X <= 1) = 0.5


X = 0 and X = 1 = 0.5

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.5

(P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)) - (P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)) = 0.9 - 0.5


P(X = 2) = 0.4

P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.9


P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + 0.4 = 0.9
P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.9 - 0.4
P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.5
P(X = 0) = 0

Q5:
P(A|B) = P(A∩B) / P(B)

P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)


P(A∩B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∪B)

P(A∩B) = 0.45 + 0.35 - 0.70


P(A∩B) = 0.80 - 0.70
P(A∩B) = 0.10
P(A|B) = P(A∩B) / P(B)
P(A|B) = 0.10 / 0.35

P(A|B) ≈ 0.2857 or 28.57%.

Q6:
P(Ā|B) = P(Ā∩B) / P(B)

P(A∩B) = P(A) * P(B)


P(A) * P(B) = 0.15
P(A) * (P(A) + 0.2) = 0.15
P(A)^2 + 0.2P(A) - 0.15 = 0
P(A) = (-0.2 ± √(0.2^2 - 4 * 1 * (-0.15))) / (2 * 1)
P(A) = (-0.2 ± √(0.04 + 0.6)) / 2
P(A) = (-0.2 ± √0.64) / 2
P(A) = (-0.2 ± 0.8) / 2
P(A) = (0.8 - 0.2) / 2
P(A) = 0.6 / 2
P(A) = 0.3
P(B) = P(A) + 0.2
P(B) = 0.3 + 0.2
P(B) = 0.5

P(Ā|B) = P(Ā∩B) / P(B)

P(Ā) = 1 - P(A)
P(Ā) = 1 - 0.3
P(Ā) = 0.7

P(Ā|B) = P(Ā∩B) / P(B)


P(Ā|B) = (P(Ā) * P(B)) / P(B)
P(Ā|B) = P(Ā)
P(Ā|B) = 0.7

Q7:
P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) = 1
P(A) + 2/3 = 1
P(A) = 1 - 2/3
P(A) = 3/3 - 2/3
P(A) = 1/3
