My NotesAsk Your Teacher Ir In the western United States, there are many dry land wheat farms that depend on winter snow and spring rain to produce good crops. About 40% of the years there is enough moisture to produce a good wheat crop, depending on the region. (a Let r be a random variable that represents the number of good wheat crops in n = 8 years.

Explanation / Answer

Given that Q15 is complete, I will solve this problem:

p(enough moisture) = .40

a. P( 6<=r|4<=r) = ?

= P(X=6,7,8 | X=4,5,6,7,8)
= 8C6*(.4^6)(.4^2)+..+8C8*(.4^8)(.4^0)/8C4*(.4^4)(.4^4)+..+8C8*(.4^8)(.4^0)
= 0.0498/0.4059
= .123


b. P( 6<=r|4<=r) = ?

= P(X=6,7,8,9,10 | X=4,5,6,7,8,9,10)
= 10C6*(.4^6)(.4^4)+..+10C8*(.4^8)(.4^2)/10C4*(.4^6)(.4^4)+..+10C8*(.4^8)(.4^2)
= 0.1662/0.61771
= .269
