Question

5. (4 points) Determine whether the variable would best be modeled as continuous or discrete: The temperature of a greenhouse at a certain time of the day. Discrete B) Continuous Determine whether the following is a probability distribution. If not, identity the requirement that is not satisfied. (4 points) If a person is randomly selected from a certain town, the probability distribution for the number, x, of siblings is as described in the accompanying table. 6· 5 or more -0 (4 points) When Jon Snow was in the Wall he had some free time and flipped a coin one hundred times and he got the following: 7. H.H.H.T.H.T,H.T.H.T,H,T,H,T,H,H,H,H,H,T What is the theoretical probability of getfing tails? A) 52% B)48% C)5% D)30% E)55%

Explanation / Answer

5) Since the temperature can take non integer values. Like 0.02, 1.23, 2.95, 15.43, 10 and so on

Hence the variable is continous

Option B is correct

6) The distribution given is not probability distribution

Since the sum of probabilities is more than 1.
