Final answer:

The probability of a randomly selected study participant's response being less than 4 cannot be determined from the given choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability that a randomly selected study participant's response was less than 4, we need to determine the range of responses and their probabilities. Since the question does not provide any specific information about the response distribution, we cannot calculate the exact probability. However, if we assume a uniform distribution of responses from 0 to 10, the probability of a response being less than 4 is 4/10 or 0.4. None of the provided options (a, b, c, d) match this probability, so the correct answer cannot be determined from the given choices.
