A sociologist randomly selects single adults for different groups of three, and the random variable x is the number in the group who say that the most fun way to flirt is in person (based on a Microsoft Instant Messaging survey).

x P(x)

0 0.091

1 0.334

2 0.408

3 0.166

Determine whether a probability distribution is given. If a probability distribution is given, find its mean and standard deviation. If a probability distribution is not given, identify the requirements that are not satisfied.

This data is not a probability distribution

The reason sum of the probabilities is not equal

∑ P(X=x) ≠ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given data

x         0            1                  2              3

p(x)    0.091    0.334          0.408      0.166

Discrete distribution :-

Probability distribution of a random variable is the set of its possible values together with their respective probabilities. Suppose X is a discrete random variable with possible outcomes (values) x₁ , x₂ , x₃ ,......... The probability of each possible outcome

If the numbers  satisfy the two conditions

i)

ii) ∑P(X=x) =1

Given data condition(i) satisfied

but the condition (ii) is not satisfied

0.091+0.334+ 0.408+ 0.166 = 0.999

sum off all probabilities is not equal to one

Conclusion:-

The given data is not probability distribution
