Tina and Martha are told by their tutor to compute the probabilities corresponding to a
given random variable. One item in their worksheet is solve for 𝐏(𝐗 ≥ 𝟏). Tina said that the
probabilities of X=1, X=3, and X= 6 must be added while Martha argued that only the probabilities
of X greater than 1 should be added. Who among them is correct?

A. Tina, because the symbol means greater than or equal.

B. Martha, because the first number must be excluded
C. Both of them are correct because they are doing the right process of adding.
D. Both of them are wrong because only one probability should be solved.

The class was divided into two groups to debate on the topic: Which is more important:
Mean or Standard Variance?” The students had a hard time in justifying their bench and tried to
relate their real-life experiences. Which of the following statements best convince the audience?

A. Mean, because it gives us the average time we spend weekly.

B. Standard deviation, because it shows us that people varies from the ideal qualification
C. Both are correct because they function differently.
D. Mean, because it explains to people the value of fairness and being neutral.
