Let a random variable $X$ take values $\{0, 1, 2, 3\}$ with $P(X=0) = P(X=1) = p$,$P(X=2) = P(X=3) = q$,and $E(X^2) = 2E(X)$. Then the value of $8p - 1$ is:

The probability distribution of a random variable $X$ is given by:
$X = x_i$$0$$1$$2$$3$$4$
$P(X = x_i)$$0.4$$0.3$$0.1$$0.1$$0.1$

Then the variance of $X$ is:

If a discrete random variable $X$ has the probability distribution $P(X=x) = k \frac{2^{2x+1}}{(2x+1)!}$ for $x = 0, 1, 2, \ldots, \infty$,then $k =$

Three defective oranges are accidentally mixed with seven good ones and on looking at them,it is not possible to differentiate between them. Two oranges are drawn at random from the lot. If $x$ denotes the number of defective oranges,then the variance of $x$ is:

Given the probability density function (p.d.f.) of the random variable $X$ as $f(x) = \frac{1}{2a}$ for $0 < x < 2a$ and $f(x) = 0$ otherwise, where $a > 0$, which of the following is correct?
