Chapter 5, Problem 5.22(choose chapter or problem)
In Exercise 5.3, we determined that the joint probability distribution of Y1, the number of married executives, and Y2, the number of never-married executives, is given by p(y1, y2) = 4 y1 3 y2 2 3 y1 y2 9 3 where y1 and y2 are integers, 0 y1 3, 0 y2 3, and 1 y1 + y2 3. a Find the marginal probability distribution of Y1, the number of married executives among the three selected for promotion. b Find P(Y1 = 1|Y2 = 2). c If we let Y3 denote the number of divorced executives among the three selected for promotion, then Y3 = 3 Y1 Y2. Find P(Y3 = 1|Y2 = 1). d Compare the marginal distribution derived in (a) with the hypergeometric distributions with N = 9, n = 3, and r = 4 encountered in Section 3.7. 5.22 I y1 y2 0 1 Total 0 .38 .17 .55 1 .14 .02 .16 2 .24 .05 .29 Total .76 .24 1.00 a Give the marginal probability functions for Y1 and Y2. b Give the conditional probability function for Y2 given Y1 = 0. c What is the probability that a child survived given that he or she was in a car-seat belt?
