Chapter 5: Q.5.9 (page 346)

A continuous probability function is restricted to the portion between x = 0 and 7. What is P(x = 10)?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The value of the P(x=10)iszero.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Given in the question is A continuous probability function is restricted to the portion between x = 0 and 7

02

Solution

The value of P(x=10)will be zero because the probability of a single point is always zero as the area under the curve for any particular single point is always zero.
