4.59 Foreign-born residents of California. The Census Bureau reports that 27% of California residents are foreign-born. Suppose that you choose three Californians at random, so that each has probability
0.27 of being foreign-born and the three are independent of each other. Let the random variable W be the number of foreign-born people you chose.
(a) What are the possible values of W?
(b) Look at your three people in order. There are eight possible arrangements of foreign (F) and domestic (D) birth. For example, FFD means the first two are foreign-born and the third is not. All eight arrangements are equally likely. What is the probability of each one?
(c) What is the value of W for each arrangement in (b)? What is the probability of each possible value of W? (This is the distribution of a Yes/No response for an SRS of size 3. In principle, the same idea works for an SRS of any size.)
