Which of the following is a required condition for a discrete probability function?
a. ∑f(x) = 0 for all values of x
b. f(x) 1 for all values of x
c. f(x) < 0 for all values of x
d. ∑f(x) = 1 for all values of x

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option d) ∑f(x) = 1 for all values of x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

f(x) is discrete probability function.

Then, the sum of all the probabilities over all possible values of x is 1.

Thus, we can write:

[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{i=0}^{i=n} f(x_i) = 1\\\\f(x_0) + f(x_1) + ... + f(x _n) = 1[/tex]

Option D) is the correct answer.

Option d) ∑f(x) = 1 for all values of x
