Question

in a survey, 100 people were asked how many car accidents they had in the past year. the estimated probability distribution for the number of accidents is shown in the table. using the data from the table, what is the probability of having exactly 1 accident in a year? accidents: x 0 1 2 3 probability: p(x) 0.905 0.080 0.010 0.005

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the relevant row

We look for the row where the number of accidents \( X = 1 \).

Step2: Read the probability

The probability \( P(X = 1) \) is given directly in the table as 0.080.

Answer:

0.080
