I have this question:
From a deck of $10$ cards, Tom draws two cards and places them back in the deck. Now Jerry draws two cards from the deck.
Let $X$ be the number of cards that was chosen by only one of Tom or Jerry. What is $\Bbb E[X]$ ?
I've figured that the range of $ X$ is $\{0,2,4\}$, and calculated the probability for zero to be: $\frac 2{10} \frac 19$, as he needs to pick the same two cards.
The probability of two cards to be : $\frac 1 {10}$$\frac 89$ , as he needs to pick the same card once and a different card after.
The probability of $4$ cards : $\frac 8{10}$$\frac 79$, as he needs to pick two different cards.
$$\Bbb E[X]=4\frac 8{10}\frac 79+2\frac 1{10}\frac 89=\frac {8}{3}$$
But I have a mistake and I can't figure out what it is. Can anyone help?
The probability of picking two cards should be multiplied by $4$, because there are two cards to match with, and we can either match-miss or miss-match.
This gives the numbers of hands as $\{X=0:2, X=2: 32, X=4:56\}$
and gives the revised expectation as:
$$\Bbb E[X]=4\frac 8{10}\frac 79+2\frac 4{10}\frac 89=\frac {16}{5}$$
