The mean and variance, respectively, of a binomial distribution for n independent trials with the probability of success as p, are

Let X1, X2 be two independent normal random variables with means μ1, μ2 and standard deviations σ1, σ2, respectively. Consider Y = X1 – X2; μ1 = μ2 =1, σ1 = 1, σ2 = 2. Then,

The standard deviation of linear dimensions $$P$$ and $$Q$$ are $$3\mu m$$ and $$4\mu m$$, respectively. When assembled, the standard deviation (in $$\mu m$$) of the following line...

A machine produces $$0, 1$$ or $$2$$ defective pieces in a day with associated probability of $${1 \over 6},{2 \over 3}$$ and $${1 \over 6}$$, respectively. Then mean value and the...

Let $$X$$ and $$Y$$ be two independent random variables. Which one of the relations $$b/w$$ expectation $$(E),$$ variance $$\left( {{V_{ar}}} \right)$$ and covariance $$\left( {{C_...

A project consists of three parallel paths with mean durations and variances of $$(10,4), (12,4)$$ and $$(12,9)$$ respectively. According to the standard $$PERT$$ assumptions, the...
