Question

According to a​ magazine, ​% of the​ world's solar energy cells are manufactured in one country. Consider a random sample of five solar energy cells and let x represent the number in the sample that are manufactured in that country. The formula below gives the probability distribution for​ x, where . Complete parts a through d. ​p(x) a. Explain why x is a discrete random variable. A. The event x is a discrete random variable because the values of the random variable are countable and each possible outcome is equally likely. B. The event x is a discrete random variable b

Answer 1

The event x is a discrete random variable because the values of the random variable are countable and each possible outcome is equally likely

Explanation:

A) Explaining why x is a discrete random variable

The event x is a discrete random variable because the values of the random variable are countable and each possible outcome is equally likely. A discrete random variable is variable that contains a countable number of values contained in it and each value stands an equal chance i.e The probability of each value/outcome is between 0 and 1
