A mail-order company business has six telephone lines. Let X denote the number of lines in use at a specified time. Suppose the pmf of X is as given in the accompanying table.
x | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
p(x) | 0.11 | 0.15 | 0.20 | 0.25 | 0.19 | 0.09 | 0.01 |
Calculate the probability of each of the following events.
(a)
{at most three lines are in use}
(b)
{fewer than three lines are in use}
(c)
{at least three lines are in use}
(d)
{between two and five lines, inclusive, are in use}
(e)
{between two and four lines, inclusive, are not in use}
(f)
{at least four lines are not in use}
