(i)
Given:
X012P(X)0.40.40.2
We know that sum of all probabilites of random variables are 1.
Here,
Sum of the possibilites =0.4+0.4+0.2=1
Hence,
The given probability distributions table is of a random varaible.
(ii)
Given:
X01234P(X)0.10.50.2−0.10.3
Always, P(X)>0
So, the given table is not the probability distributions of a random variable
(iii)
Given:
Y−101P(Y)0.60.10.2
We know that sum of all probability distributions is 1.
Sum of probabilites
=0.6+0.1+0.2=0.9≠1
Hence, Y is not a probability distribution.
(iv)
Given:
Z3210−1P(Z)0.30.20.40.10.05
We know that sum of all probability distribution is 1
Sum of probabilites
=0.3+0.2+0.4+0.1+0.05=1.05≠1
Hence, Z is not a probability distribution.
