Let \({\rm{X}}\) denote the number of Canon SLR cameras sold during a particular week by a certain store. The pmf of \({\rm{X}}\) is

Sixty percent of all customers who purchase these cameras also buy an extended warranty. Let \({\rm{Y}}\) denote the number of purchasers during this week who buy an extended warranty.

a. What is\({\rm{P(X = 4,Y = 2)}}\)? (Hint: This probability equals\({\rm{P(Y = 2}}\mid {\rm{X = 4) \times P(X = 4)}}\); now think of the four purchases as four trials of a binomial experiment, with success on a trial corresponding to buying an extended warranty.)

b. Calculate\({\rm{P(X = Y)}}\).

c. Determine the joint pmf of \({\rm{X}}\) and \({\rm{Y}}\)then the marginal pmf of\({\rm{Y}}\).

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The solution for \({\rm{P(X = 4,Y = 2)}}\)is \({\rm{P(X = 4,Y = 2) = 0}}{\rm{.05184 = 5}}{\rm{.184\% }}\).

(b) The solution for \({\rm{P(X = Y)}}\) is \({\rm{P(X = Y) = 0}}{\rm{.40144 = 40}}{\rm{.144\% }}\).

(c) The joint pmf of X and Y is \({\rm{p(x,y) = P(X = x) \times }}\frac{{{\rm{x!}}}}{{{\rm{y!(x - y)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{y}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{x - y}}}}\) and then the marginal pmf of Y is

\(\begin{aligned}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(0) = 0}}{\rm{.2478,}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(1)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.3590,}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(2)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.2678,}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(3)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.1058,}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(4)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.0194}}\end{aligned}\)

Definition

Probability simply refers to the likelihood of something occurring. We may talk about the probabilities of particular outcomes鈥攈ow likely they are鈥攚hen we're unclear about the result of an event. Statistics is the study of occurrences guided by probability.

02

Given in question

Given:

\({\rm{Y}}\)given \({\rm{X}}\) (the number of purchasers \({\rm{X}}\) that buy an extended warranty) has a binomial distribution with\({\rm{p = 60\% = 0}}{\rm{.60}}\).

03

Determining \({\rm{P(X = 4,Y = 2)}}\)

(a) Definition binomial probability:

\({\rm{P(Y = k)}}{{\rm{ = }}_{\rm{n}}}{{\rm{C}}_{\rm{k}}}{\rm{ \times }}{{\rm{p}}^{\rm{k}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - p}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{n - k}}}}{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{n!}}}}{{{\rm{k!(n - k)!}}}}{\rm{ \times }}{{\rm{p}}^{\rm{k}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - p}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{n - k}}}}\)

Using the definition of binomial probability with \({\rm{X = n = 4}}\) and\({\rm{Y = k = 2}}\):

\(\begin{aligned}{\rm{P(Y = 2}}\mid {\rm{X = 4)}}\\{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{4!}}}}{{{\rm{2!(4 - 2)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{4 - 2}}}}\\{\rm{\gg 0}}{\rm{.3456}}\end{aligned}\)

General multiplication rule:

\({\rm{P(A and B) = P(A) \times P(B}}\mid {\rm{A) = P(B) \times P(A}}\mid {\rm{B)}}\)

Using the general multiplication rule we then obtain:

\(\begin{aligned}{\rm{P(X = 4,Y = 2)}}\\{\rm{ = P(X = 4) \times P(Y = 2}}\mid {\rm{X = 4)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.15 \times 0}}{\rm{.3456}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.05184}}\\{\rm{ = 5}}{\rm{.184\% }}\end{aligned}\)

04

Calculating \({\rm{P(X = Y)}}\)

(b) (a) Definition binomial probability:

\({\rm{P(Y = k)}}{{\rm{ = }}_{\rm{n}}}{{\rm{C}}_{\rm{k}}}{\rm{ \times }}{{\rm{p}}^{\rm{k}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - p}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{n - k}}}}{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{n!}}}}{{{\rm{k!(n - k)!}}}}{\rm{ \times }}{{\rm{p}}^{\rm{k}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - p}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{n - k}}}}\)

Using the definition of binomial probability with \({\rm{X = n}}\) and\({\rm{Y = k = n}}\):

\(\begin{aligned}{\rm{P(Y = 0}}\mid {\rm{X = 0)}}\\{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{0!}}}}{{{\rm{0!(0 - 0)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{0}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{0 - 0}}}}{\rm{ = 1}}\\{\rm{P(Y = 1}}\mid {\rm{X = 1)}}\\{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{1!}}}}{{{\rm{1!(1 - 1)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{1}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{1 - 1}}}}{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.6}}\\{\rm{P(Y = 2}}\mid {\rm{X = 2)}}\\{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{2!}}}}{{{\rm{2!(2 - 2)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{2}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{2 - 2}}}}{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.36}}\\{\rm{P(Y = 3}}\mid {\rm{X = 3)}}\\{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{3!}}}}{{{\rm{3!(3 - 3)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{3}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{3 - 3}}}}{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.216}}\\{\rm{P(Y = 4}}\mid {\rm{X = 4)}}\\{\rm{ = }}\frac{{{\rm{4!}}}}{{{\rm{4!(4 - 4)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{4}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{4 - 4}}}}{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.1296}}\end{aligned}\)

General multiplication rule:

\({\rm{P(A and B) = P(A) \times P(B}}\mid {\rm{A) = P(B) \times P(A}}\mid {\rm{B)}}\)

05

Calculation for \({\rm{P(X = Y)}}\)

Using the general multiplication rule we then obtain:

\(\begin{aligned}{\rm{P(X = 0,Y = 0)}}\\{\rm{ = P(X = 0) \times P(Y = 0}}\mid {\rm{X = 0)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.1 \times 0 = 0}}{\rm{.1}}\\{\rm{P(X = 1,Y = 1) = P(X = 1) \times P(Y = 1}}\mid {\rm{X = 1)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.2 \times 0}}{\rm{.6 = 0}}{\rm{.12}}\\{\rm{P(X = 2,Y = 2)}}\\{\rm{ = P(X = 2) \times P(Y = 2}}\mid {\rm{X = 2)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.3 \times 0}}{\rm{.36 = 0}}{\rm{.108}}\\{\rm{P(X = 3,Y = 3)}}\\{\rm{ = P(X = 3) \times P(Y = 3}}\mid {\rm{X = 3)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.25 \times 0}}{\rm{.216 = 0}}{\rm{.054}}\\{\rm{P(X = 4,Y = 4)}}\\{\rm{ = P(X = 4) \times P(Y = 4}}\mid {\rm{X = 4)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.15 \times 0}}{\rm{.1296 = 0}}{\rm{.01944}}\end{aligned}\)

Addition rule for disjoint or mutually exclusive events:

\({\rm{P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)}}\)

Add the corresponding probabilities:

\(\begin{aligned}{\rm{P(X = Y)}}\\{\rm{ = P(X = 0,Y = 0) + P(X = 1,Y = 1) + P(X = 2,Y = 2) + P(X = 3,Y = 3) + P(X = 4,Y = 4)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.1 + 0}}{\rm{.12 + 0}}{\rm{.108 + 0}}{\rm{.054 + 0}}{\rm{.01944}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.40144}}\\{\rm{ = 40}}{\rm{.144\% }}\end{aligned}\)

06

Determining the joint pmf of \({\rm{X}}\) and \({\rm{Y}}\)then the marginal pmf of \({\rm{Y}}\)

(c) General multiplication rule:

\({\rm{P(A and B) = P(A) \times P(B}}\mid {\rm{A) = P(B) \times P(A}}\mid {\rm{B)}}\)

The joint pmf of \({\rm{X}}\) and \({\rm{Y}}\) is the product of the conditional distribution \({\rm{Y}}\mid {\rm{X}}\) (which is the binomial distribution \({\rm{p = 0}}{\rm{.6}}\) and \({\rm{n = X)}}\) and the probability distribution of\({\rm{X}}\).

\({\rm{p(x,y) = P(X = x) \times P(Y = y}}\mid {\rm{X = x) = P(X = x) \times }}\frac{{{\rm{x!}}}}{{{\rm{y!(x - y)!}}}}{\rm{ \times 0}}{\rm{.6}}{{\rm{0}}^{\rm{y}}}{\rm{ \times (1 - 0}}{\rm{.60}}{{\rm{)}}^{{\rm{x - y}}}}\)

Evaluated for all possible \({\rm{x}}\) and \({\rm{y}}\) values (for which the joint pmf is nonzero).

Note: The columns totals are identical to the probability distribution of\({\rm{X}}\).

The marginal pmf of \({\rm{Y}}\) at \({\rm{Y = y}}\) is the sum of the probabilities of all possible values of \({\rm{x}}\) of the joint pmf with\({\rm{Y = y}}\). Thus, the row totals of the table will be the marginal pmf of \({\rm{Y}}\).

07

The joint pmf of \({\rm{X}}\) and \({\rm{Y}}\)then the marginal pmf of \({\rm{Y}}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(0) = p(0,0) + p(1,0) + p(2,0) + p(3,0) + p(4,0)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.2478}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(1)}}\\{\rm{ = p(1,1) + p(2,1) + p(3,1) + p(4,1)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.3590}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(2)}}\\{\rm{ = p(2,2) + p(3,2) + p(4,2)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.2678}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(3)}}\\{\rm{ = p(3,3) + p(4,4)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.1058}}{{\rm{p}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(4)}}\\{\rm{ = p(4,4)}}\\{\rm{ = 0}}{\rm{.0194}}\end{aligned}\)

A student has a class that is supposed to end at\({\rm{9:00 A}}{\rm{.M}}\). and another that is supposed to begin at \({\rm{9:10 A}}{\rm{.M}}\).

Suppose the actual ending time of the \({\rm{9:00 A}}{\rm{.M}}\). class is a normally distributed \({\rm{rv}}\) \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}\)with mean \({\rm{9:02 A}}{\rm{.M}}\)and standard deviation \({\rm{1}}{\rm{.5\;min}}\)and that the starting time of the next class is also a normally distributed \({\rm{rv}}\) \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{2}}}\)with mean \({\rm{9:10}}\)and standard deviation \({\rm{1\;min}}{\rm{.}}\)Suppose also that the time necessary to get from one classroom to the other is a normally distributed \({\rm{rv}}\) \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{3}}}\)with mean \({\rm{6\;min}}\) and standard deviation\({\rm{1\;min}}\).
