Question

the table gives a set of outcomes and their probabilities. let a be the event \the outcome is greater than or equal to 10\. find p(a). outcome probability 1 0.03 2 0.09 3 0.03 4 0.05 5 0.07 6 0.35 7 0.12 8 0.17 9 0.07 10 0.02

Explanation:

Step1: Identify outcomes in event A

Event \( A \) is "outcome is greater than or equal to 10". From the table, the only outcome in \( A \) is 10.

Step2: Find probability of outcome 10

The probability of outcome 10 is given as \( 0.02 \). Since there are no other outcomes in \( A \) (as the table only goes up to 10 and no outcomes above 10 are listed with probabilities), \( P(A) \) is the probability of outcome 10.

Answer:

\( 0.02 \)
