Solve the following problem :

Find the expected value and variance of the r. v. X if its probability distribution is as follows.

X 0 1 2 3 4 5
P(X = x) `(1)/(32)` `(5)/(32)` `(10)/(32)` `(10)/(32)` `(5)/(32)` `(1)/(32)`
योग

उत्तर

E(X) = \[\sum\limits_{i=1}^{6} x_i\cdot\text{P}(x_i)\]

= `0(1/32) + 1(5/32) + 2(10/32) + 3(10/32) + 4(5/32) + 5(1/32)`

= `(0 + 5 + 20 + 30 + 20 + 5)/(32)`

= `(80)/(32)`

= `(5)/(2)`
= 2.5

E(X2) = \[\sum\limits_{i=1}^{6} x_i^2\text{P}(x_i)\]

= `0^2(1/32) + 1^2(5/32) + 2^2(10/32) + 3^2(10/32) + 4^2(5/32) + 5^2(1/32)`

= `(0 + 5 + 40 + 90 + 80 + 25)/(32)`

= `(240)/(32)`

= `(15)/(2)`

∴ Var(X) = E(X2) – [E(X)]2

= `(15)/(2) - (5/2)^2`

= `(5)/(4)`
= 1.25
