Question 612825: How many green elements are required to make this a legitimate probability distribution if there are a total of 50 elements in this sample?
x red blue orange brown green
P(x) 0.10 0.10 0.18 0.22
red is above 0.10 and so on. Green has no number.
You can put this solution on YOUR website! How many green elements are required to make this a legitimate probability distribution if there are a total of 50 elements in this sample?
x red blue orange brown green
P(x) 0.10 0.10 0.18 0.22
red is above 0.10 and so on. Green has no number.

The missing probability is 1-(0.1+0.1+0.18+0.22) = 1-0.6 = 0.40
-------------------
# of green = 0.4*50 = 20
