Let \(\{X_i\}\) be a sequence of independent Poisson(\(\lambda\)) variables, and let \(W_n = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} X_i\). Then the limiting distribution of \(\sqrt{n}(W_n - \lambda)\) is the normal distribution with zero mean and variance given by (A) \(1\) (B) \(\sqrt{\lambda}\) (C) \(\lambda\) (D) \(\frac{\lambda}{2}\)

GATE 2018 | MATHS | QUESTION 34
Let the cumulative distribution function of the random variable \(X\) be given by \[ F_X(x) = \begin{cases} 0 & \text{if } x < 0 \\ x & \text{if } 0 \leq x < \frac{1}{2} \\ \frac{1 + x}{2} & \text{if } \frac{1}{2} \leq x < 1 \\ 1 & \text{if } x \geq 1 \end{cases} \] Then, the probability \(P(X = \frac{1}{2})\) is given by

GATE Practice Problem | Probability
Two defective bulbs are present in a set of five bulbs. To remove the two defective bulbs, the bulbs are chosen randomly one by one and tested. If $𝑋$ denotes the minimum number of bulbs that must be tested to find out the two defective bulbs, then $𝑃(𝑋 = 3)$ (rounded off to two decimal places) equals _______________

Telephone calls arrive at an exchange according to the Poisson process at a rate λ= 2/min. Calculate the probability that exactly two calls will be received during each of the first 5 minutes of the hour. the given solution is: Assume that N is the number of calls received during 1 ... 5) = 32 x e-10 P(M =5) = 0.00145, where e is a constant, which is approximately equal to 2.718.
