Question 228660
Determine if each of the distributions given below represent a probability distribution. 
A. 
x
1
2
3
4
P (x)
1/12
5/12
1/3 = 4/12
1/12
----------
No because the probabilities add up to 11/12 and need to add up to 12/12
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
B.
x
3
6
8 
P(x)
2/10
.5 = 5/10
1/5 = 2/10
No because the probs add up to 9/10
---------------------------------------------- 
C.
x
20
30
40
50 
P(x)
0.4
0.2
0.5
0.3
No because the probs add up to more than 1.
