Suppose that the random variable z, shown below, represents the number times . P(x) represents the probability of a randomly selected person having received that number of speeding tickets during that period. Use the probability distribution table shown below to answer the following questions. 56 z P(z) 0 0.3028 1 0.2745 0.2629 3 0.0889 4 0.0406 0.0303 6+ 0.0000 a) What is the probability that a randomly selected person has received one tickets in a three-year period? P(x = 1) = 0.2745 b) What is the probability that a randomly selected person has received five tickets in a three-year period? P(r = 5) = 0.0303 c) What is the probability that that a randomly selected person has received more than two tickets in a three-year period? P(r > 2) = 0.1598 d) What is the probability that that a randomly selected person has received five or less tickets in a three- year period? P(r < 5) 1
