The variable x is the number of members in a group of six who say that their family and/or partner are the highest contributors to their happiness (based on a Coca-Cola survey).

The requirements for a probability distribution table are as follows.

1)The variable x represents the count of members who favor the particular decision in the group of 6. Thus, it is a numerical variable.

2)The sum of the probabilities is computed as

$$\begin{gathered} 鈭�P\left(x\right)=0+0.003+0.025+...+0.373+0.208 \\ =0.999 \end{gathered}$$

Therefore, the sum of the probabilities is approximately equal to 1, with a round-off error of 0.001.

3) Each probability value of xP(x) is between 0 and 1.

Therefore, the provided table describes a probability distribution.

The mean for the random variable is computed as

$$\begin{gathered} 渭=鈭�\left[x脳P\left(x\right)\right] \\ =\left(0脳0\right)+\left(1脳0.003\right)+\left(2脳0.025\right)+...+\left(6脳0.208\right) \\ =4.615 \\ 鈮�4.6 \end{gathered}$$

Thus, the mean is 4.6.

The standard deviation of the random variable x is computed as

$蟽=\sqrt{鈭�\left[x^2脳P\left(x\right)\right]-{渭}^2}$

The calculation isas follows.

$$\begin{gathered} 鈭�\left[x^2路P\left(x\right)\right]=\left(0^2脳0\right)+\left(1^2脳0.003\right)+\left(2^2脳0.025\right)+...+\left(6^2脳0.208\right) \\ =22.379 \end{gathered}$$

The standard deviation is given as

$$\begin{gathered} 蟽=\sqrt{鈭�\left[x^2路P\left(x\right)\right]-{渭}^2} \\ =\sqrt{22.379-{4.6}^2} \\ =1.104 \\ 鈮�1.0 \end{gathered}$$

Thus, the standard deviation is 1.0.
