Answer #1

As we know from the definition of probability, for any random experiment the probability of any event A will have,

and for all possible events the sum of all such mutually exclusive outcomes be 1

So based on this here we can say,

A probability distribution lists all possible outcomes for an experiment and the corresponding probability for each of those outcomes. The probabilities cannot be ___________; each probability must be between _____________; and the sum of the probabilities for all of the outcomes must be ________________.

And from all the multiple choices the correct choice will be,

negative; zero and one; one

Hence the answer,...............

To define a discrete probability distribution f, the necessary conditions that need to hold for each possible outcome, x, are: f(x) ≥ 0, i.e. the probability has to be non-negative The sum of f(x) over all possible values of x should add up to 1. P(X = x) = f(x), i.e. f(x) denotes the probability that the random variable for the possible outcomes is equal to x. All of the above Only (a) and (b)
