Probability

Question:

Let X denote the number of hours you study during a randomly selected school day. The probability that X can take the values x, has the following where k is come unknown constant.

What is the probability that you study at least two hours?

Options:

0.75

0.25

0.5

0.67

Correct Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

P(at least two hours) = P(X>=2) 

P(X>=2) = P(X=2) + P(X=3) + P(X=4)

              = 2k + 2k + k = 5k = 5(0.15)

              =  0.75
