The table shows the probability distribution of the number of bases for a randomly selected time at bat for a random player on a certain baseball team. complete parts a through c below.
bases probability
0 0.7408
1 0.1708
2 0.0538
3 0.0054
4 0.0292
a. verify that the probabilities give a legitimate probability distribution. choose the correct answer below a. all the probabilities are between 0 and 1. b. the sum of the probabilities is 1 c. the sum of the probabilities is between 0 and 1 and each probability is less than 1. d. the sum of the probabilities is 1 and each probability falls between 0 and 1
b. find the mean of this probabiliy distribution
c. interpret the mean, explaining why it does not have to be a whole number, even though oach possile value for the number of bases is a whole number.
