Choose the correct alternative :
If p.m.f. of r.v.X is given below.
| x | 0 | 1 | 2 |
| P(x) | q2 | 2pq | p2 |
Then Var(X) = _______
पर्याय
p2
q2
pq
2pq
उत्तर
Since given data is p.m.f. of r.v. X, we get
q2 + 2pq + p2 = 1
∴ (q + p)2 = 1
∴ (q + p) = 1 ...(i)
E(X) = \[\sum\limits_{x=0}^{2} x\text{P}(x)\]
= 0 x q2 + 1 x 2pq + 2 x p2
= 2pq + 2p2
= 2p (q + p)
= 2p ...[From (i)]
E(X2) = \[\sum\limits_{x=0}^{2} x^2\text{P}(x)\]
= (0)2 x q2 + (1)2 x 2pq + (2)2 x p2
= 2pq + 4p2
∴ Var(X) = E(X2) – [E(X)]2
= 2pq + 4p2 – (2p)2
= 2pq + 4p2 – 4p2
= 2pq.
