Consider the experiment of a worker assembling a product. (a) Define a random variable that represents the time in minutes required to assemble the product. Let x = the average number of products assembled by the worker during six 4-hour shifts.Let x = the percentage the product assembly is complete.    Let x = the time (in hours) to assemble six products.Let x = the total number of products assembled by the worker during four 6-hour shifts.Let x = the time (in minutes) to assemble the product. (b) What values may the random variable assume? It may assume any value between 0 and 100 (inclusive): 0 ≤ x ≤ 100.It may assume any value between 0 and 60 (inclusive): 0 ≤ x ≤ 60.    It may assume values such as: 1, 2, ..., 99, 100.It may assume any positive value: x > 0.It may assume three values: 4, 5, and 6. (c) Is the random variable discrete or continuous? discretecontinuous

Consider the experiment of a worker assembling a product.
(a)
Define a random variable that represents the time in minutes required to assemble the product.
Let x = the average number of products assembled by the worker during six 4-hour shifts.Let x = the percentage the product assembly is complete.    Let x = the time (in hours) to assemble six products.Let x = the total number of products assembled by the worker during four 6-hour shifts.Let x = the time (in minutes) to assemble the product.
(b)
What values may the random variable assume?
It may assume any value between 0 and 100 (inclusive): 0 ≤ x ≤ 100.It may assume any value between 0 and 60 (inclusive): 0 ≤ x ≤ 60.    It may assume values such as: 1, 2, ..., 99, 100.It may assume any positive value: x > 0.It may assume three values: 4, 5, and 6.
(c)
Is the random variable discrete or continuous?
discretecontinuous
