Problem:
The student answers three questions on the examination card. The probability of a correct answer to the first question is equal to 0,5 , to the second one is 0,7 and to the third question 0,9 . It is required:
a) make a distribution series of the number \( X \) of the questions, which are given correct answers;
b) find the expected value and the dispersion of the random variable \( X \);
c) accurately plot the graph of its function of the distribution \( F_{X}(x) \).
