Q#3 a) A random variable x has the following probability distribution. 05
X 3 4 5

P(x) 0.2 0.4 0.4

b) Take all possible of 2 distinct values from the population 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 Assuming
the 15 possible samples equally likely. Construct the sampling distribution of sample
means and sample variance and find the mean of these distributions. Calculate the mean
and variance of the population. Discuss the result. 15
