Unit Test in QUANTITATIVE METHODS

1. Let X denotes the number of Tails (T) that will appear in flipping 4 coins.

2. Using the probability below, find the probability of getting at most 2 trials when you flip a coin 4
times.

No. of trials 0 1 2 3 4
(x)
Probability (x) 1/16 4/16 6/16 4/16 1/16

3. The number of cars sold per day at local car dealership, along with its corresponding
probabilities, is shown in the succeeding table. Compute the variance, and the standard
deviation of the probability distribution.

Number of Cars Sold (x) Probability

0 1/10
1 2/10
2 3/10
3 2/10
4 2/10

4. Suppose we have 10 marbles in a box, 3 pink marbles, 2 green marbles and 5 blue marbles. If we
pick out 5 marbles with replacement, what is the probability of drawing exactly two green
marbles using binomial experiment?

5. If you make 70% of the basketball shots you take. What is the probability you make exactly 9 out
of 10 shots?
