उत्तर
(i) Since P (x) is a probability distribution of x,
`Sigma_(x = 0)^6 P(x) = 1`
∴ P (0) + P (1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5) + P (6) = 1
∴ k + 2k + 3k + 4k + 5k + 6k = 1
∴ 21k = 1
∴ k = `1/21`
(ii)
P(X ≤ 4)
= P (0) + P (1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4)
=k + 2k + 3k + 4k
= `10k`
= `10 (1/21)`
= `10/21`
P(2< X < 4)
= P(3)
= `3k`
= `3(1/21)`
= `1/7`
P(X ≥ 3)
= P (3) + P(4) + P(5) + P(6)
= `3k + 4k + 5k + 6k`
= `18k`
= `18×1/21`= `6/7`
