Question

Determine whether the distribution is a discrete probability distribution 1 0.32 2 0.20 3 0.32 4-028 s the distibution a discrete probability distribution? Why? Choose the correct answer below O A. Yes because the probabilities sum to 1 and are all between O and 1, indlusive O B. No, because some of the probabilities bave values greater than 1 or less than d C. Yes, because the distribution i O D. No because the total probability is not equal to 1 Click to seiect your answer 10-18/17 sction 6 1 H

Explanation / Answer

Answer: Option (B) : No because some of the probabilities values are greater than 1 or less than 0

Given distribution,

The given distribution is not a descrete probability distribution because the value P(2) = -0.2 is negative ,

for a descrete probability distribution all the value should be between 1 and 0

x P(x) 0 0.26 1 0.32 2 -0.20 3 0.32 4 0.26
