Question

The table gives a set of outcomes and their probabilities. Let A be the event "the outcome is a divisor of 8". Find P(A). Outcome Probability 1 0.01 2 0.04 3 0.4 4 0.01 5 0.08 6 0.07 7 0.21 8 0.07 9 0.11

Answer 1

For divisor of 8:

A be the event "the outcome is a divisor of 8".

Then P(A):

`\begin{gathered} P(A)=P(1)+P(2)+P(4)+P(8) \\ P(A)=0.01+0.04+0.01+0.07 \\ P(A)=0.13 \end{gathered}`
