question 121

Multiple Choice

(i. A probability distribution relates the expected outcomes of an experiment to the probability of each one occurring. (ii) The probability of all events in a probability distribution must sum to one.
(iii) An infinite population consists of a fixed number of individuals, objects, or measurements.

• B) (i) is a correct statement but not (ii) or (iii).
• C) (i) and (ii) are correct statements but not (iii).
• D) (ii) and (iii) are correct statements but not (i).
• E) (i), (ii), and (iii) are all false statements.
