B. Answer
1. NOT a probability distribution.
2. NOT a probability distribution.
3. NOT a probability distribution.
4. NOT a probability distribution.
5. Probability Distribution
Explanation
Because, the probability is not equal to 1.
Because, the probability is not equal to 1.
Because, the probability is not equal to 1.

Because, the probability is equal to 1.

ACTIVITY 4: ENTRY CARD

1. YES
2. 1
3. NO! The probability of the outcome of an experiment is never negative.

ACTIVITY 5:
1. Mean: μ=∑ x ∙ P ( X )=21
2 2
Variance: σ =∑ ( x−μ ) ∙ P( X)=25.2
Standard Deviation: σ = √ 25.2=5.01996∨5.02

2. Mean: μ=∑ x ∙ P ( X )=2

2 2
Variance: σ =∑ ( x−μ ) ∙ P( X)=1
Standard Deviation: σ =√ 1=1

3. Mean: μ=∑ x ∙ P ( X )=11.3

2 2
Variance: σ =∑ ( x−μ ) ∙ P( X)=1.81
Standard Deviation: σ = √ 1.81=1.34536∨1.345

POST-TEST:
1. A 2. C 3. C 4. D 5. B 6. A 7. A
8 – 10. Mean: μ= ∑ x ∙ P ( X )=1.8
2 2
Variance: σ =∑ ( x−μ ) ∙ P( X)=1.16
Standard Deviation: σ = √ 1.16=1.077
