Let the random variable X be the number of rooms in a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city. The distribution for the units is given below.
3 4 5 6 7
X
8 9 10
P(X) 0.07 0.2 0.4 0.17 0.05 0.05 0.04 ?
(a) Is X a discrete or continuous random variable? (Type: DISCRETE or CONTINUOUS)
ANSWER: discrete
(b) What must be the probability of choosing a unit with 10 rooms? P(X = 10) = 0.02
(c) What is the probability that a unit chosen at random is not a 10-room unit? P(X = 10) -
(d) What is the probability that a unit chosen at random has three rooms? P(X = 3) = ||
=
(e) What is the probability that a unit chosen at random has between four and six rooms? P(4≤ X ≤ 6) =
