Question

The table shows the probability distribution of the number of bases for a randomly selected time at bat for a random player on a certain baseball team. Complete parts a through c below Bases Probability 0.7408 0.1708 0.0538 0.0054 0.0292 a. Verify that the probabilities give a legitimate probability distribution. Choose the correct answer below A. All the probabilities are between 0 and 1. O B. The sum of the probabilities is 1 C. The sum of the probabilities is between 0 and 1 and each probability is less than 1. DThe sum of the probabilities is 1 and each probability falls between 0 and 1 b. Find the mean of this probabiliy distribution »- (Type an integer or a decimal Do not round )

Explanation / Answer

Solution:-

b. = x p(x)

   = 0 (0.7408)+1(0.1708)+2(0.0538)+3(0.0054)+4(0.0292)

= 0.4114
