- Fred needs to choose a password for a certain website. Assume that he will choose an 8-character password, and that the legal characters are the lowercase letters a, b, c, ..., z, the uppercase letters A, B, C, ..., Z, and the numbers 0, 1, . . ., 9. (a) How many possibilities are there if he is required to have at least one lowercase letter in his password?

- A restaurant serves three fixed-price dinners costing $12, $15, and $20. For a randomly selected couple dining at this restaurant, let X = the cost of the man's dinner and Y = the cost of the woman's dinner. The joint pmf of X and Y is given in the following table. p(x, y) 15 y 12 20 12 0.05 0.10 0.35 x 15 0.00 0.20 0.10 20 0.05 0.05 0.10 (a) Compute the marginal pmf of X. x 12 Px(x) Compute the marginal pmf of Y. y Pyly) 12 15 20 15 20 (b) What is the probability that the man's and the woman's dinner cost at most $15 each?
