Question

the table gives a set of outcomes and their probabilities. let a be the event \the outcome is less than or equal to 1\. find p(a).

outcome	probability
2	0.1
3	0.1
4	0.4

Explanation:

Step1: Identify relevant outcomes

Event \(A\) is "outcome is less than or equal to \(1\)". The relevant outcome is \(1\).

Step2: Sum probabilities of relevant outcomes

The probability of outcome \(1\) is \(0.4\). So \(P(A)=0.4\).

Answer:

\(0.4\)
