Question

Q.1: A box contains 500 envelopes of which 75 contains $100in cash, 150 contains $25, and 275    contains $10. An envelope may be purchased for $25. What isthe sample space for the different amounts of money? Assignprobabilities to the sample points and then find the probabilitythat the first envelope purchased contains less than $100.
Q.2: A 5-sided die with sides numbered 1,2,3,4,and 5 isconstructed so that 1 and 5 occur twice as often as the 2 and 4,which occur three times as often as the 3. What is the probabilitythat a perfect square occurs when this die is tossed once?

Explanation / Answer

Answer: 1 A box contains 500 envelops of which 75 contain $100 in cash, 150contain $25, and 275 contain $10. An envelop may be purchased for$25. What is the sample space for the different amounts ofmoney? X(FX): 100(75) 25(150) 10(275) Assign probabilities to the sample points and then find theprobability that the first envelop purchased contains less than$100. X(PX): 100(.15) 25(.30) 10(.55) .30 + .55 = .85 Sorry I can't understand the second Question Properly,
