An urn contains two red and two green marbles. we pick one marble, record its color, and replace it before picking the second marble. we repeat this procedure a third time. the probability distribution for the number of red marbles is given by number of red marbles 0 1 2 3 probability 1/8 3/8 3/8 1/8 for this distribution, the probability two or more red marbles is given by:

Answer:

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Our probability density function indicates that:

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{3}{8}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

the probability two or more red marbles is given by

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{1}{8} = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
