Question

the table gives a set of outcomes and their probabilities. let a be the event \the outcome is less than 2\. find p(a).

outcome	probability
2	0.28
3	0.21
4	0.08
5	0.24

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the outcome that satisfies event A

Event A is "the outcome is less than 2". From the table, the outcome that satisfies this is 1.

Step2: Find the probability of the identified outcome

The probability of outcome 1 is given in the table as 0.19.

Answer:

0.19
