2  0.300

3  0.400

Is the distribution a discrete probability​ distribution?

A. Yes , because the sum of the probabilities is equal to 1.

B. Yes , because the sum of the probabilities is equal to 1 and each probability is between 0 and 1 comma inclusive.

C. No , because the sum of the probabilties is not equal to 1.

D. No , because each probability is not between 0 and 1 comma inclusive.

Answer:

The correct option is B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question the probabilites are

        [tex]p_1 = 0.100[/tex]

        [tex]p_2 = 0.200[/tex]

        [tex]p_3 = 0.300[/tex]

        [tex]p_4 = 0.400[/tex]

The sum of the probability is  

       [tex]\sum p(x) = 0.100 + 0.200+ 0.300+ 0.400 = 1[/tex]
