Discrete random variables probability question in description.?

2017-08-19 2:18 pm
As a result of a random experiment, two independent events, X and Y may occur with the following probabilities:

Pr(X)=0.5 and Pr(Y)=0.8

Define the random variable U as the number of events X and Y which occur as a result of the random experiment. Thus, for example U=2 if both X and Y occur.

Find Pr(U=0), Pr(U=1) and Pr(U=2)

✔ 最佳答案
Pr(U = 0)
= Pr([not X] and [not Y])
= Pr(not X) * Pr(not Y)
= (1 - 0.5) * (1 - 0.8)
= 0.1

Pr(U = 1)
= Pr({X and [not Y]} or {[not X] and Y}
= Pr(X) * Pr(not Y) + Pr(not X) * Pr(Y)
= 0.5 * (1 - 0.8) + (1 - 0.5) * 0.8
= 0.5

Pr(U = 2)
= Pr(X and Y)
= Pr(X) * Pr(Y)
= 0.5 * 0.8
= 0.4

OR:
Pr(U = 2)
= 1 - [Pr(U = 1) + Pr(U = 2)]
= 1 - (0.1 + 0.5)
= 0.4
