A box contains ten sealed envelopes numbered 1, . . . , 10. The first five contain no money, the next three each contains $5, and there is a $10 bill in each of the last two. A sample of size 3 is selected with replacement, and you get the largest amount in any of the envelopes selected. If X1, X2, and X3 denote the amounts in the selected envelopes, the statistic of interest is M =the maximum of X1, X2, and X3 a)Find the possible values ofthe statisticM. b)Obtain the populationdistribution p(x) for the Xi and display it in a pmf table. c)Obtain the probability distribution p(m) of the statistic M and display it in a pmf table. d)As an alternative solutionto c), use a tree diagram and show how to compute the probabilitiesdirectly from the tree. e)Carry out a simulation experiment to compare the distributions of M for various sample sizes. (Hint: Write a computer program to generate the digits 0-9 from a discrete uniform distribution. Assign a value of x = 0 to the digits 0-4, a value of x = 5 to digits 5-7, and a value of x = 10 to digits 8 and 9. Generate samples of increasing sizes, keeping the number of replications constant, and compute M = max(X1,..., Xn) from each sample.)How does thedistribution change as n increases

You are given four balls numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4, and two boxes, one white and one black. (a) You must place two balls in each box. How many different ways can this be done? (b) Suppose you can distribute the balls anyway you want. (4 balls in one box none in the other; 1 in one box 3 in the other; etc.) How many different ways can this be done?
