If the random variable is “yellow (Y),” which of the following is the correct probability distribution?

Answer 1

HI!!

Answer 2

hi!!

Answer 3

you have 16 outcomes right? how many of those contain no Y?

Answer 4

i dont understand

Answer 5

\[ S =\{RB, RG, RY, RR, BR, BG, BY, BB, GR, GB, GY, GG, YR, YB, YG, YY\}\]

Answer 6

i see sixteen pairs there

Answer 7

9 of them contain no y

Answer 8

right

Answer 9

so the probability you get no Y's i.e. \(P(X=0)=\frac{9}{16}\)

Answer 10

okay

Answer 11

I think the answer is the last one

Answer 12

i don't

Answer 13

did you turn \(\frac{9}{16}\) in to a decimal?

Answer 14

you get 0.5625
