2 Agenda Distributions between 6.
3 Choosing a Distribution between 6.3
4 In some of our examples, we will use a distribution to calculate a probability, then use that probability as the parameter in a new distribution between 6.4
5 Example 40 In a jar there are 00,000,000 coins, 5,000,000 of which are quarters. You select 50 coins from the jar randomly and without replacement. Let X be the number of quarters in your sample. What is the distribution of X? between 6.5
6 Example 40 In a jar there are 00,000,000 coins, 5,000,000 of which are quarters. You select 50 coins from the jar randomly and without replacement. Let X be the number of quarters in your sample. What is the distribution of X? Find the probability that X is between 6.5
7 Example 40 In a jar there are 00,000,000 coins, 5,000,000 of which are quarters. You select 50 coins from the jar randomly and without replacement. Let X be the number of quarters in your sample. What is the distribution of X? Find the probability that X is 3 Is there an approximate distribution for X, why or why not? between 6.5
8 Example 40 cont d Solution. X Hyp(N = 00, 000, 000, n = 50, K = 5, 000, 000) between 6.6
9 Example 40 cont d Solution. X Hyp(N = 00, 000, 000, n = 50, K = 5, 000, 000) P(X = ) = ( )( ) ( ) = 0.7 between 6.6

11 Example 4 Nick plays a game with his friend Eric. Eric bets $ every hand (5 cards). If he gets a full house, he wins $500 (on top of keeping his bet of $); otherwise, he loses the $ to Nick. Suppose in an afternoon of gambling, Nick and Eric play this game 500 times. Let E denote the number of hands that Eric wins in this particular afternoon. Name the distribution and parameter(s) for E between 6.7
