Question
The probability distribution of a discrete random variable X is given below:
$\text{X}:$ $2$ $3$ $4$ $5$
$\text{P}(\text{X}):$ $\frac{5}{\text{k}}$ $\frac{7}{\text{k}}$ $\frac{9}{\text{k}}$ $\frac{11}{\text{k}}$
The value of k is:

Answer

  1. 32
Solution:
$\sum\limits_2^5\text{P}(\text{x})=1$
$\frac{5}{\text{k}}+\frac{7}{\text{k}}+\frac{9}{\text{k}}+\frac{11}{\text{k}}=1$
$\text{k}=32$
