Here's the Solution to this Question

Four envoy were selected in \dbinom{8}{4}=70.

The possible values of the random variable K are 1,2,3,4.


P(K=1)=\dfrac{\dbinom{5}{1}\dbinom{3}{4-1}}{\dbinom{8}{4}}=\dfrac{1}{14}

P(K=2)=\dfrac{\dbinom{5}{2}\dbinom{3}{4-2}}{\dbinom{8}{4}}=\dfrac{3}{7}

P(K=3)=\dfrac{\dbinom{5}{3}\dbinom{3}{4-3}}{\dbinom{8}{4}}=\dfrac{3}{7}

P(K=4)=\dfrac{\dbinom{5}{4}\dbinom{3}{4-4}}{\dbinom{8}{4}}=\dfrac{1}{14}
