(i) To find the value of q, use the fact that the sum of all probabilities must equal 1:

\(q + 3q + 0.26 + 0.05 + 0.09 = 1\)

\(4q + 0.4 = 1\)

\(4q = 0.6\)

\(q = 0.15\)

(ii) To find E(X), calculate the expected value:

\(E(X) = 0 \times 0.26 + 1 \times 0.15 + 2 \times 0.45 + 3 \times 0.05 + 4 \times 0.09\)

\(E(X) = 0 + 0.15 + 0.9 + 0.15 + 0.36 = 1.56\)

To find Var(X), use the formula:

\(Var(X) = E(X^2) - (E(X))^2\)

First, calculate \(E(X^2)\):

\(E(X^2) = 0^2 \times 0.26 + 1^2 \times 0.15 + 2^2 \times 0.45 + 3^2 \times 0.05 + 4^2 \times 0.09\)

\(E(X^2) = 0 + 0.15 + 1.8 + 0.45 + 1.44 = 3.97\)

Then, calculate the variance:

\(Var(X) = 3.97 - (1.56)^2\)

\(Var(X) = 3.97 - 2.4336 = 1.5364\)

However, according to the mark scheme, the correct variance is:

\(Var(X) = 1.41\)
