(a) An item is produced in large numbers. The machine is known to produce 10%
defectives. A quality control inspector is examining the items by taking them at
random. What is the probability that atleast 5 items are to be examined to get 2
defectives .
(b) Let x be a random variable denoting number of trials required to get first success ,
where trials are independent and Bernoullian each with same constant probability of
success 'p'. Show that for any two positive integers s and t :
P[x>s+t|x>s]=P[x>t].
(c) If xU(0,1), find the distribution of -2logex and identify it. Hence obtain the
distribution of -2logeP, where P=x1x2dotsxn, and x1,x2,dots,xn are iid U(0,1)
variates.
