Answer:

0.55

Explanation:

The right-hand column of the table gives us the probabilities of the probability function. We know from elementary probability theory that the "probability" of any event(s) happening would be from 0 to 1 inclusive.

The total probability of all events would add up to 1. So, we look at the probabilities given for each even, x, and add them:

0.29 + 0.09 + 0.03 + 0.04 = 0.45

All of these probabilities and the probability at x = 2 (the unknown) would add up to 1, so we can say:

0.45 + probability (x = 2) = 1

Probability at x = 2 = 1 - 0.45 = 0.55
