The probability function of a random variable X is given by
p(x) = `{{:(1/4",",  "for"  x = - 2),(1/4",",  "for"  x = 0),(1/2",",  "for"  x = 10),(0",",  "elsewhere"):}`

P(|X| ≤ 2)

उत्तर

X – 2 0 10
P(X = x) `1/4` `1/4` `1/2`

P(|x| ≤ 2) = P(– 2 ≤ X ≤ 2)

= P(X = – 2) + P(X = 0) 

= `1/4 + 1/4`

= `2/4`

= `1/2`
