Q86.From a lot of 10 items, which include 3 defective items, a sample of 5 items is drawn at random. Let the random variable X denote the number of defective items in the sample. If the variance of X is σ2 , then 96σ2 is equal to ______

What This Question Tests

This question involves identifying the scenario as a hypergeometric distribution, then calculating the variance of the random variable X (number of defective items) using the appropriate formula for hypergeometric distribution.

Concepts Tested

Probability distributionsHypergeometric distributionExpected valueVariance of a random variable

Formulas Used

P(X=k) = [C(K,k) * C(N-K, n-k)] / C(N,n)

E[X] = np (for binomial), but hypergeometric is different

Var(X) = n * (K/N) * (N-K)/N * (N-n)/(N-1)
