The probability distribution of a random variable \(x\) is, \(P(x)=\frac{k}{2^x}, x=0,1,2,3\). Then
Match List-I with List-II
List-IList-II
(A) k(I) \(\frac{2}{15}\)
(B) \(P ( x =1)\)(II) \(\frac{1}{5}\)
(C) \(P (1<x<3)\)(III) \(\frac{8}{15}\)
(D) \(P(x \geq 2)\)(IV) \(\frac{4}{15}\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (IV)
  2. B (A) - (IV), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (I)
  3. C (A) - (IV), (B) - (III), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)
  4. D (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\sum P(x) = 1 \Rightarrow k(\frac{1}{2^0} + \frac{1}{2^1} + \frac{1}{2^2} + \frac{1}{2^3}) = 1\) \(k(1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{8}) = 1\) \(k(\frac{8+4+2+1}{8}) = 1 \Rightarrow k(\frac{15}{8}) = 1 \Rightarrow k = \frac{8}{15}\) (A) - (III)…
