A biased spinner can only land on one of the numbers 1, 2, 3 or 4. The random variable X X\,X represents the number that the spinner lands on after a single spin and P(X=r)=P(X=r+1)P(X = r) = P(X = r + 1)P(X=r)=P(X=r+1) for r=1,3r = 1, 3r=1,3
Given that P(X=1)=0.30P(X = 1) = 0.30P(X=1)=0.30
find the complete probability distribution for XXX.
Chloe spins the spinner 20 times. Find the probability that the spinner lands on the number 4 more than 5 times.
The random variable Y=6−3XY = 6 - 3XY=6−3X. Find P(Y+X≥4)P(Y + X \geq 4)P(Y+X≥4)
