Multiple Choice

Determine Whether a Probability Experiment is a Hypergeometric Experiment
-A university must choose a team of 5 students to participate in a TV quiz show. The students will be chosen at random from a pool of 36 potential participants of whom 29 are women. The random variable $\mathrm { X }$ represents the number of women on the team.

• A) hypergeometric; \(\mathrm { N } = 36 , \mathrm { n } = 5 , \mathrm { k } = 29 , \mathrm { x } = 0,1,2,3,4,5\)
• B) hypergeometric; \(\mathrm { N } = 36 , \mathrm { n } = 29 , \mathrm { k } = 5 , \mathrm { x } = 0,1,2,3,4,5\)
• C) hypergeometric; \(\mathrm { N } = 36 , \mathrm { n } = 5 , \mathrm { k } = 29 , \mathrm { x } = 0,1,2 , \ldots , 29\)
• D) not hypergeometric
