Automobile engines and transmissions are produced on
Chapter 2, Problem 12E(choose chapter or problem)
Automobile engines and transmissions are produced on assembly lines, and are inspected for defects after they come off their assembly lines. Those with defects are repaired. Let X represent the number of engines, and Y the number of transmissions that require repairs in a one-hour time interval. The joint probability mass function of X and Y is as follows:
\(\begin{array}{ccccc} \hline & & \ \ \ \ \ {\boldsymbol{y}} \\ \boldsymbol{x} & \mathbf{0} & \mathbf{1} & \mathbf{2} & \mathbf{3} \\ \hline \mathbf{0} & 0.13 & 0.10 & 0.07 & 0.03 \\ \mathbf{1} & 0.12 & 0.16 & 0.08 & 0.04 \\ \mathbf{2} & 0.02 & 0.06 & 0.08 & 0.04 \\ \mathbf{3} & 0.01 & 0.02 & 0.02 & 0.02 \\ \hline \end{array}\)
