प्रश्न

If r.v. X assumes values 1, 2, 3, ……. n with equal probabilities then E(X) = `("n" + 1)/(2)`

विकल्प

  • True

  • False

MCQ
सत्य या असत्य

उत्तर

This statement is True.

Explanation:

X 1 2 3 .... n
P(X) `(1)/"n"` `(1)/"n"` `(1)/"n"`   `(1)/"n"`

E(X) = `sumx_"i"*"P"(x_"i")`

= `1(1/"n") + 2(1/"n") + 3(1/"n") + .... + "n"(1/"n")`

= `(1)/"n" (1 + 2 + 3 + .... +  "n")`

= `(1)/"n". ("n"("n" + 1))/(2)`

= `("n" + 1)/(2)`.
