Determine whether the distribution is a discrete probability distribution.
Is the distribution a discrete probability distribution?
A. Yes, because the sum of the probabilities is equal to 1.
B. Yes, because each probability is between 0 and 1 , inclusive.
C. No, because the-sum of the probabilities is not equal to 1.
D. Yes, because the sum of the probabilities is equal to 1 and each probability is between 0 and 1 , inclusive

Final Answer:
Step 1 :Given the distribution table, we need to determine whether it is a discrete probability distribution. The conditions for a distribution to be a discrete probability distribution are: each probability is between 0 and 1, inclusive, and the sum of all probabilities is equal to 1.
Step 2 :First, we check if each probability is between 0 and 1, inclusive. Looking at the table, we can see that all probabilities are indeed between 0 and 1.
Step 3 :Next, we need to check if the sum of all probabilities is equal to 1. We do this by adding all the probabilities:
Step 4 :The sum of the probabilities is 1. Therefore, both conditions for a discrete probability distribution are met.
Step 5 :Final Answer:
