The probability distribution for the number of goals the Lions soccer team makes per game is given below. Number of Goals Probability 0 .05 1 .15 2 .35 3 .30 4 .15 What is the probability that in a given game the Lions will score less than 3 goals

Respuesta :

Answer:

So, the probability is P(X<3)=0.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the probability distribution for the number of goals the Lions soccer team makes per game. We have:

[tex]P(0)=0.05\\\\P(1)=0.15\\\\P(2)=0.35\\\\P(3)=0.30\\\\P(4)=0.15\\[/tex]

We calculate the the probability that in a given game the Lions will score less than 3 goals.

[tex]P(X<3)=P(0)+P(1)+P(2)\\\\P(X<3)=0.05+0.15+0.35\\\\P(X<3)=0.55\\\\[/tex]

So, the probability is P(X<3)=0.55.
