Probability Density Functions A continuous random variable takes
... A continuous random variable takes on an uncountably infinite number of possible values. For a discrete random variable X that takes on a finite or countably infinite number of possible values, we determined P(X = x) for all of the possible values of X, and called it the probability mass function (" ...

... 2. Let A, B, C, D, and E be sample space outcomes forming a sample space. Suppose P(A)=0.2, P(B)=0.15, P(C)=0.3, and P(D)=0.2. What is P(E)? P(E)=1-0.2-0.15-0.3-0.2= 0.15 3. The probability that a student fails STAT 3309 is 0.10. What is the probability that a student passes STAT 3309? 4. A rock con ...
