Question

40 POINTS!! RIGHT ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE!!

The number of absences for one week for all students at a high school were compiled, and the probability distribution below was created. What is the probability in any given week that a randomly selected student will be absent more than 4 days?


Probability Distribution
Days Absent: X 0 1 2 3 4 5
Probability: P(X) 0.78 0.14 0.03 0.01 0 0.04


A
0.25

B)0.04

C)0.004

D)0.05

Answer 1

The probability of a randomly selected student being absent more than 4 days is 0.04.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability that a randomly selected student will be absent more than 4 days, we need to sum the probabilities of being absent 5 days. From the given probability distribution table, the probability of being absent 5 days is 0.04.

So, the probability of a randomly selected student being absent more than 4 days is 0.04.
