For the hypergeometric function
a. Is n a parameter of position, scale, shape or a combination? Explain.
b. Is K a parameter of position, scale, shape or a combination? Explain.
c. Is N a parameter of position, scale, shape or a combination? Explain.
d. Say you had a bag filled with 10 red marbles and 50 white marbles. You randomly pull 5 marbles out of the bag and count how many of them were red. In this case, what would be the value of n, K, and N?
a) n is the parameter of number of combinations
nCx: The number of combination of n things taken x at a time
b) k is the parameter of scale
k : the number of items in the sample that are classified as successes
c) N is the parameter of position
N : the number of items in the population i.e N is fixed so it is position
d) A bag is filled with 10 red marbles and 50 white marbles .randomly draw 5 marbles from the bag and count how many number of red marbles here
n : randomly drawn 5 marbles from the bag
k : successive number of red marbles out of n (k<n)
N : the total population i.e total of red and white marbles
M : total number of red marbles
N-M : total number of white marbles
