PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION

I. TRUE OR FALSE. (1 pt each)

Directions: Write T if the statement is TRUE, and write F if otherwise on the space provided.
________1. A probability distribution can be in the form of a table, graph or mathematical formula.
________2. The probabilities can be determined theoretically or by observation.
________3. A probability distribution consists of the values a random variable can assume and the corresponding
probabilities of the values.
________4. The difference of the probabilities of all the events in the sample space must be equal to 1.
________5. The probabilities of each event in the sample space must be between or equal to 0 and 1.
That is, 0 ≥ P(x) ≤ 1.
________6-7. Statements from numbers 4 and 5 are the two requirements for a Probability Distribution.
________8. A probability histogram is a histogram in which the vertical axis corresponds to the value of the random
variable and the horizontal axis represents the probability of that value of the random variable.
________9. Probability distribution is not often useful to determine to observe a distributional model for the data.
_______10. Probability is the likelihood that an event will occur and is calculated by adding and subtracting the
number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes.

II. IDENTIFICATION. (1 pt each)

Directions: Determine whether the distribution is a probability distribution. Write YES if it is a probability
distribution and NO if not.
