II. Read and Analyze. Complete the table below. What are the possible outcomes in the problem and its values?
(8 pts)

A certain area in the Southern part of Negros Oriental experienced black out. A couple, having a
new born baby, found difficulty putting their baby to sleep when there is no electricity. The couple has two
(2) Mini 12v rechargeable hybrid car batteries. They thought of using it to at least put up a single light bulb.
To make sure, that both are functioning well they need to test them randomly first. Thus, to each outcome
in the sample space we shall assign a value. These are 0, 1, or 2. If there is no defective, we assign the
number 0; if there is 1 defective, we assign the number 1; and 2, if there are two defective batteries. The
number of defective batteries is a random variable. The possible values of this random variable are 0, 1, and
2.

Illustration

Let D represent the defective battery and N for the non-defective. If we let Y be the random variable
representing the number of defective battery, show the values of the random variable Y. Complete the table
below to show the values of the random variable.
Possible Outcomes Value of the Random Variable Y

(number of defective battery)

III. Directions: Answer and complete the table below.

A mother is expected to give birth to a triplet. Let X denotes the number of a girl to be born.

x 0 1 2 3

P (x) 0.1 0.4 0.4

x P (x) 0.8 0.4

x 1 16

x P (x) 0.1 1.6

a. P ( x = 1)
b. P (x < 2)

c. P ( x > 2)

d. Find the mean.

e. Find the variance.

f. Find the standard deviation.
