This is the last part. 
 
(c) Express the event "have at least one cup of coffee on an average day" in terms of X .
A) {?≥1}
B) {?<1}
C) {?>1}
D) {?=1}
E) {?≤1}
 
What is the probability of this event? (Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places.)
 
The probability of this event is:
 
Choose an adult age 18 or over in the United States at random and ask, "How many cups of coffee do you drink on
average per day?" Call the response X for short. Based on a large sample survey, a probability model for the answer you
will get is given in the table..
0| 1
Number
2
3
4 or more
Probability
0.36 | 0.26 | 0.19 | 0.08
0.11
(a) Is this a valid finite probability model?
No. This is not a valid finite probability model, because the probabilities are all greater than 0 and do not sum to 1.
No. This is not a valid finite probability model, because each probability is between 0 and 1 and all sum to 1.
Yes. This is a valid finite probability model, because the probabilities are all greater than 0 and do not sum to 1.
Yes. This is a valid finite probability model, because each probability is between 0 and 1 and all sum to 1.

(b) Describe the event X < 4 in words.
The event X < 4 is the event in which an individual drinks fewer than 4 cups of coffee on average per day.
The event X < 4 is the event in which an individual might drink fewer than 4 cups of coffee on average per day.
The event X < 4 is the event in which an individual might drink more than 4 cups of coffee on average per day.
O The event X < 4 is the event in which an individual drinks more than 4 cups of coffee on average per day.
What is P(X < 4)? (Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places.)
