The parameter = 0.001 is the probability a packet is corrupted. The

transmitted. Y has the binomial PMF

(a) Since Y has range SY = {1, 2, 3}, the range of U = Y 2 is SU = {1, 4, 9}.
The PMF of U can be found by observing that
P [U = u] = P Y 2 = u = P Y = u + P Y = u .

(b) There are two ways to find this. The first way is to observe that

We see that U is a binomial (70, 1 p). The second way is to argue
this directly since U is counting overlooked students. If we call an overlooked student a success with probability 1 p, then U , the number
of successes in n trials, is binomial (70, 1 p).
(c)
P [U 2] = 1 P [U < 2]
= 1 (PU (0) + PU (1))
= 1 (p70 + 70(1 p)p69 ).
(3)
(d) The binomial (n = 70, 1 p) random variable U has E[U ] = 70(1 p).
Solving 70(1 p) = 2 yields p = 34/35.

will exceed 0.6 since a free throw is usually even easier than an uncontested
shot taken during the action of the game. Furthermore, fouling the shooter
ultimately leads to the the detriment of players possibly fouling out. This
suggests that fouling a player is not a good idea. The only real exception
occurs when facing a player like Shaquille ONeal whose free throw probability
p is lower than his field goal percentage during a game.
