There rotten apples are mixed accidently with seven good apples and four apples are drawn one by one without replacement. Let the random variable \(X\) denote the number of rotten apples. If \(\mu\) and \(\sigma^2\) represent mean and variance of \(X\), respectively, then \(10\left(\mu^2+\sigma^2\right)\) is equal to

  1. A \(20\)
  2. B \(250\)
  3. C \(25\)
  4. D \(30\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(20\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\sum xP ( x )=\frac{6}{2}=\mu\) \(\sigma^2=\sum x^2 P(x)-\mu^2\) \(\sigma^2+\mu^2=0+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{12}{10}+\frac{9}{30}=2\) \(10\left(\sigma^2+\mu^2\right)=20 \text { Ans. }\)
