5. Question : (TCO 4) A nursing class has 13 women and 18 men. If a student is chosen randomly to be the team leader, what is the probability the student is a woman?
6. Question : (TCO 4) Compute the following: 3! ÷ (0! * 3!)
7. Question : (TCO 5) Decide whether the experiment is a binomial, Poisson, or neither based on the information given. Each week a man plays a game in which he has a 21% chance of winning. The random variable is the number of times he wins in 64 weeks.
8. Question : (TCO 5) Given a Poisson distribution with mean = 4. Find P(X < 3).
9. Question : (TCO 5) Given the random variable X = {7, 8} with P(7) = 0.7 and P(8) = 0.3. Find E(X).
10. Question : (TCO 5) If X = {-1, 12, 3, -4} and P(-1) = 0.3, P(12) = 0.1, P(3) = 0.2, and P(-4) = 0.4, can distribution of the random variable X be considered a probability distribution?
11. Question : (TCO 5) If X = {2, 6, 10, 14} and P(2) = 0.2, P(6) = 0.3, P(10) = 0.4, and P(14) = 0.1, can distribution of the random variable X be considered a probability distribution?

Explanatory
1.Question : (TCO 5) We have a binomial experiment with p = 0.4 and n = 2.
(1) Set up the probability distribution by showing all x values and their associated probabilities.
(2) Compute the mean, variance, and standard deviation.
