4.16 Unit Test: Random Variables and Distributions - Part 1

For the probability distribution shown, what is  ?


A graph of a probability distribution. The vertical axis is labeled P and extends from 0 to 0.25 with an interval of 0.05. The horizontal axis is labeled X and extends from 0 to 10 with an interval of 1. From X equals 0 to X equals 6, the height of the probability distribution increases linearly from P equals 0 to P equals 0.20. From X equals 6 to X equals 10, the height of the probability distribution decreases linearly from P equals 0.20 to P equals 0.

a. 0.2

b. 0.4

c. 0.65

d. 0.75
