-Determine the grouped mean, median, and mode.
-Determine the grouped ranged and sample variance.
f. A data set has a mean of 7 and a standard deviation of 6. What is the least possible value in the data set?
What is the highest possible value?
g. Suppose P(A) = 0.5, P(B) = 0.8 and P(A∩B) = 0.3. Use Venn diagrams to find the following:
- P(A∪B)
- P(A∩Bc)+P(Ac∩Bc)
h. Let X be a random variable giving the number of tails minus twice the number of heads in two tosses of a
coin. Construct a PMF for X.
b. The probability that Ago will vote on a bond referendum is 0.21. The probability that Bea will vote on the
referendum is 0.28, and the probability that both Ago and Bea will vote is 0.15. What is the probability that
Bea will not vote given that Ago will vote.
c. In a game, a woman is paid P3.00 if she draws a jack or a queen and P5.00 if she draws a king or an ace
from a standard deck of cards. If she draws any other card she loses P4.00. Let X represents his gain.
Construct a PMF for X and find his expected earnings.
