Answer:
Part a:
"The unit has 7 or more rooms" in terms of X is given by the unit which has 7, 8, 9 or 10 rooms.
P{ X≥7}= 0.424
Part b:
The event {X > 7} in words is that the unit has more than 7 rooms. .
Part C:
A continuous random variable is given by intervals of numbers
A discrete random variable is the variable that is obtained by counting.
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a:
"The unit has 7 or more rooms" in terms of X is given by
{ X≥7} = {x=7} + {x=8} + {x=9} + {x=10}
the unit which has 7, 8, 9 or 10 rooms.
The probability of this event is given by
P{ X≥7} =P {x=7} + P {x=8} + P {x=9} + P {x=10}
P{ X≥7} = 0.198 + 0.149+ 0.053 + 0.024
P{ X≥7}= 0.424
Part b:
The event {X > 7} in words is that the unit has more than 7 rooms. This does not include the unit having 7 rooms.
Part C:
A continuous random variable takes all the values in the given interval as in part a.The random variable X takes the values between 7 and 10 inclusive of 7.
A discrete random variable is the variable that is obtained by counting as in part b. The variable X takes the values of the units with 8 , 9 or 10 rooms.
