You are given the following distributions, where some of the probabilities have been removed. Complete the tables so that each probability distribution is valid. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) Distribution A x | P(x) 1 | 2 | 0.6 Distribution B x | P(x) 5 | 0.21 10 | 15 | 0.21 20 | 0.36 Distribution C x | P(x) 3 | 0.7 4 | 0.25 5 |

Step 1
Given probabilities: - Value 10: 0.21 - Value 15: 0.21 - Value 20: 0.36 - Value 25: 0.25 To find the missing probability for value 10: Total probability must equal 1. So, 0.21 + 0.21 + 0.36 + 0.25 + Missing Probability = 1 Missing Probability = 1 - (0.21 + 0.21 + Show more…

Three tables listed below show random variables and their probabilities. However, only one of these is actually a probability distribution. a. Which is it? b. Using the correct probability distribution, find the probability that x is: (Round the final answers to 1 decimal place.) 1. Exactly 15 = 2. No more than 10 = 3. More than 5 = c. Compute the mean, variance, and standard deviation of this distribution. (Round the final answers to 2 decimal places.) 1. Mean μ 2. Variance σ² 3. Standard deviation σ

Complete the following probability distribution table and then calculate the stated probabilities. HINT [See Quick Example 5.] Outcome a b c d e Probability 0.3 0.02 0.5 0.08 (a) P({a, c, e}) P({a, c, e}) = (b) P(E ∪ F), where E = {a, c, e} and F = {b, c, e} P(E ∪ F) = (c) P(E'), where E is as in part (b) P(E') = (d) P(E ∩ F ), where E and F are as in part (b) P(E ∩ F) =

Determine whether or not the table is a valid probability distribution of a discrete random variable. Explain fully. a. $\frac{m}{P(x)} \mid-100 \frac{4}{0.30 .50 .20 .1}$ b. \begin{tabular}{c|ccc} & 0.5 & 0.25 & 0.25 \\ \hline$P(x)$ & -0.4 & 0.6 & 0.8 \end{tabular} C. \begin{tabular}{c|ccccc} & 1.1 & 2.5 & 4.1 & 4.6 & 5.3 \\ \hline$P(x)$ & 0.16 & 0.14 & 0.11 & 0.87 & 0.22 \end{tabular}
