MCQ
A random variable $X$ has the following probability distribution

$X$

$0$ $1$ $2$ $3$ $4$
$P(X)$ $k$ $2$ $4k$ $6k$ $64$

The value of $P (1< X <4 \mid X \leq 2)$ is equal to

  • $\frac{4}{7}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{3}{7}$
  • D
    $\frac{4}{5}$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{4}{7}$
a
$P \left(\frac{1< x <4}{ x \leq 2}\right)=\frac{ P (1< x <4 \cap x \leq 2)}{ P ( x \leq 2)}$

$=\frac{ P (1< x \leq 2)}{ P ( x \leq 2)}=\frac{ P ( x =2)}{ P ( x \leq 2)}$

$=\frac{4 k }{ k +2 k +4 k }$

$=\frac{4}{7}$
