Question 23 of 25 • Concepts in Probability and Statistics - MA3120 IC
A school conducts a recipe contest in which 1 student gets first place, 1 student gets second place, 1 student gets third place, and 10 students tie for fourth place. Fifty students enter the contest. If X represents the distribution of prizes, which graph represents the probability distribution for a randomly selected student?
Answer
A
A probability distribution has prizes on the x-axis and probability on the y-axis. The probability of no prize is 0.73; 1st price is 0.01; 2nd price is 0.01; 3rd price is 0.01; 4th price is 0.2.
B
A probability distribution has prizes on the x-axis and probability on the y-axis. The probability of no prize is 36; 1st price is 1; 2nd price is1; 3rd price is 1; 4th price is 10.
C
A probability distribution has prizes on the x-axis and probability on the y-axis. The probability of no prize is 0.8; 1st price is 0.01; 2nd price is 0.03; 3rd price is 0.05; 4th price is 0.08.
D
A probability distribution has prizes on the x-axis and probability on the y-axis. The probability of no prize is 0.68; 1st price is 0.01; 2nd price is 0.03; 3rd price is 0.05; 4th price is 0.2.
