Suppose that a box contains 7 cameras and that 5 of them are defective. A sample of 2 cameras is selected at random without replacement. Define the random variable X
as the number of defective cameras in the sample.

E(x) = 1.43 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of camera = 7

Defective camera = 5

Sample selected = 2

Computation:

when x = 0

P(x=0) = 2/7 × 1/6 = 2/42

P(x=1) = [2/7 × 5/6] + [5/7 × 2/6] = 20/42

P(x=2) = 5/7 × 4/6 = 20/42

So,

E(x) = [0×2/42] + [1×20/42] + [2×20/42]

E(x) = 1.43 (Approx)

answer: 1722

step-by-step explanation:

given: the mass of saturn=

the mass of mercury=

the number of times the mass of saturn is greater than the mass of mercury

hence, the mass of saturn is 1722 times greater than the mass of mercury.
