State which of the following are not the probability distributions of a random variable. Give reasons for your answer.
X | 0 | 1 | 2 |
P(X) | 0.4 | 0.4 | 0.2 |
Given: A given table with values for X and P(X).
As we know the sum of all the probabilities in a probability distribution of a random variable must be one.
Hence the sum of probabilities of given table = 0.4 + 0.4 + 0.2
= 1
Hence, the given table is the probability distributions of a random variable.
