Question
A discrete random variable can assume five possible values: 2,3, 6, 8, and 10. Its probability distribution is shown below.
X 2 3 6 8 10
P(X=x) .15 .10 .25 .25
A. Find the probability that therandom variable, x, is 8?
B. What is the probability that xis 6 or 10?
C. What is the probability that xis at most 6?
D. What is the probability thex=4?
Explanation / Answer
b. 0.5 0.25+0.25=0.5 c. 0.5 0.15+0.10+0.25=0.5 d. 0 4 is not a possiblevalue=0Related Questions
