Analyze Discrete Random Variables

Which of the following is NOT an assumption of the Binomial distribution?

• All trials must be independent.
• Each trial must be classified as a success or a failure.
• All trials are dependent on each other.
• The number of successes in the trials is counted.

State whether it is Discrete or Continuous;

The speed of a car

• Discrete

• Continuous

Is the distribution below a probability distribution? Why or why not?

• Yes. All P(x) values are between 0 and 1, and ∑P(x) = 1
• No, not all P(x) values are between 0 and 1.
• No, ∑P(x) ≠ 1.

State whether it is Discrete or Continuous;

• Discrete

• Continuous

Which one of these variables is a continuous random variable?

• The time it takes a randomly selected student to complete an exam.
• The number of tattoos a randomly selected person has.
• The number of women taller than 68 inches in a random sample of 5 women. 
• The number of correct guesses on a multiple choice test. 

• 336

• 56

• 8/5
