Question 2
Green candies= 12
Blue candies= 8
N (Total candies ) = 20
a) Draw a tree diagram and list all possible outcome in sample space.

Question 3
N (total number ) = 10
P = 0.10 ( drop-out students)
Q = 1-0.10
= 0.90 (non-drop out students)

a) P(X ≥ 2)
= 1- P(X ≤ 1)
= 1- 0.7361
= 0.2639

b) P( 2 < X ≤ 5)
= P( X ≤ 5) – P( X ≤ 2)
= 0.9999- 0.9298
=0.0701

c) P = 0.9 (non-drop out students)

Q= 0.1 (drop out students)

P(X=6)

= nC x ( px )(q n−x )

= 10c 6 ¿
=0.0112
Question 4
p= 0.01 (did not finished study )
q= 0.99 (finished study)
N (total) = 800

a) Mean = np
=800 X 0.1
=8

b) Variance =npq
= 800 X 0.1 X 0.99
= 7.92
Standard Deviation = √ npq
= √ 7.92
= 2.8142
Question 5
Standard deviation = 2 /per minit
a) Standard Deviation , σ = 2
Variance σ 2 = 22
=4
*Variance = Mean
 Thus, Mean = 4

b) P( X > 10)
= 1- P(X ≤ 9)
= 1-0.7166
= 0.2834

c) 1 minute : ƛ= 4
60 minutes : ƛ = 4 x 60
= 240
Variance = mean = 240
Standard deviation per hour
= √ƛ
=√ 240
=15.4919
