  3. C cosech 2
  4. D \(\cosh 2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) cosech 2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\sum_{x=0}^{\infty} P(X=x) = 1\) \(k \sum_{x=0}^{\infty} \frac{2^{2 x+1}}{(2 x+1)!} = 1\) \(k \sinh(2) = 1\) \(k = \frac{1}{\sinh(2)} = \text{cosech}(2)\)
