CHAPTER 3Section 3.11.S: FFF SFF FSF FFS FSS SFS SSF SSSX: 0 1 1 1 2 2 2 32. X = 1 if a randomly selected book is non-fiction and X = 0 otherwiseX = 1 if a randomly selected executive is a female and X = 0 otherwiseX = 1 if a randomly selected driver has automobile insurance and X = 0 otherwise3. M = the difference between the large and the smaller outcome with possible values 0, 1, 2, 3,4, or 5; W = 1 if the sum of the two resulting numbers is even and W = 0 otherwise, aBernoulli random variable.4. In my perusal of a zip code directory, I found no 00000, nor did I find any zip codes with fourzeros, a fact which was not obvious. Thus possible X values are 2, 3, 4, 5 (and not 0 or 1). X= 5 for the outcome 15213, X = 4 for the outcome 44074, and X = 3 for 94322.5. No. In the experiment in which a coin is tossed repeatedly until a H results, let Y = 1 if theexperiment terminates with at most 5 tosses and Y = 0 otherwise. The sample space isinfinite, yet Y has only two possible values.6. Possible X values are1, 2, 3, 4, … (all positive integers)Outcome: RL AL RAARL RRRRL AARRLX: 2 2 5 5 595
