Let XbeabinomiallydistributedrandomvariablewithmeanX be a binomially distributed random variable with mean4andvarianceand variance\dfrac{4}{3}.Then. Then54P(X≤2)P\left(X \le 2\right) is equal to

Options

  1. A7327\dfrac{73}{27}
  2. B14627\dfrac{146}{27}
  3. C14681\dfrac{146}{81}
  4. D12681\dfrac{126}{81}

Correct answer

B. 14627\dfrac{146}{27}

Step-by-step solution

Mean np=4np = 4

Variance npq=43npq = \dfrac{4}{3}

i.e. n=6,p=23,q=13n = 6, p = \dfrac{2}{3}, q = \dfrac{1}{3}

Now 54P(X≤2)=54[P(X=2)+P(X=1)+P(X=0)]54P\left(X \le 2\right) = 54\left[P\left(X = 2\right) + P\left(X = 1\right) + P\left(X = 0\right)\right]

=54(C26(23)2(13)4+C16(23)1(13)5+C06(23)0(13)6)= 54\left(C2 6 {\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)}^{2}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)}^{4} + C1 6 {\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)}^{1}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)}^{5} + C0 6 {\left(\dfrac{2}{3}\right)}^{0}{\left(\dfrac{1}{3}\right)}^{6}\right)

=54(15×436+6×236+136)=2×33(7336)=14627= 54\left(15 \times \dfrac{4}{{3}^{6}} + 6 \times \dfrac{2}{{3}^{6}} + \dfrac{1}{{3}^{6}}\right) = 2 \times {3}^{3}\left(\dfrac{73}{{3}^{6}}\right) = \dfrac{146}{27}
