The probability distribution of a random variable X is given by

Then the variance of X is

Three houses are available in a locality. Three persons apply for the houses. Each applies for one house without consulting others. The probability that all the three persons apply for the same house is

A bag contains 4 Red and 6 Black balls. A ball is drawn at random from the bag, its colour is observed and this ball along with 3 additional balls of the same colour are returned to the bag. If now a ball is drawn at random from the bag, then the probability that this drawn ball is red is

If a discrete random variable X takes values $0,1,2,3, \ldots \ldots$. with probability $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{X}=x)=\mathrm{k}(x+1) 5^{-x}$, where k is a constant, then $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{X}=0)$ is
