$X = x$ $0$ $1$ $2$ $3$
$P(X = x)$ $\frac{1}{10}$ $\frac{2}{10}$ $\frac{3}{10}$ $\frac{4}{10}$

    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$

In a communication network, $98 \%$ of messages are transmitted with no error. If a random variable $X$ denotes the number of incorrectly transmitted messages, then the probability that at most one message is transmitted incorrectly out of $500$ messages sent, is

In a hospital, on an average if there are $35$ births in a week, then the probability that there will be less than $3$ births in a day is:

The p.d.f. of a continuous random variable $X$ is given by $f(x) = \frac{x}{8}$ for $0 < x < 4$ and $f(x) = 0$ otherwise. Then $P(X \leq 2)$ is:

$A$ random variable $X$ takes the values $1, 2, 3$ and $4$ such that $2 P(X=1) = 3 P(X=2) = P(X=3) = 5 P(X=4)$. If $\sigma^2$ is the variance and $\mu$ is the mean of $X$, then $\sigma^2 + \mu^2 =$
