T F 1. The probability that X takes on a value that is between 3 and inclusive of 4 can be written as P(3 < X ( 4).
T F 2. P(X > x ) + P(X < x) + P(X = x) = 1.
T F 3. If P(X > x) = 0.34 and P(X = x) = 0.10, then P(X ( x) = 0.56.
T F 4- Using the classical viewpoint, the probability of an event happening is defined as the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes.
T F 5- The probability assigned to an event that is certain not to occur is 1.0.

13. What is the probability that a household receives at most 2 daily papers? a. 0.15 b. 0.35 c. 0.50 d. 0.85
14. What is the probability that a household receives 3 or more daily papers? a. 0.10 b. 0.15 c. 0.25 d. 0.35

0.15 b. 0.20 c. 0.35 d. 0.50
Use the following information to answer questions 16 – 20.
