A random variable X has the following probability distribution
Then the value of $k$ is |
8 16 32 64 |
32 |
The correct answer is Option (1) → 8 Given probability distribution: $X:$ 2 3 4 5 $P(X): \frac{5}{k}, \frac{7}{k}, \frac{9}{k}, \frac{11}{k}$ Since total probability = 1, $\frac{5}{k} + \frac{7}{k} + \frac{9}{k} + \frac{11}{k} = 1$ $\frac{(5 + 7 + 9 + 11)}{k} = 1$ $\frac{32}{k} = 1$ $k = 32$ Therefore, the value of $k$ is 32. |
