Consider the hospital data in table. Suppose a patient is selected randomly from the collection in the table. Let X denote the hospital number of the selected patient (either 1, 2, 3, or 4). Does X have a discrete uniform distribution?

O No. X is a discrete random variable but not uniform, because the probabilities of a patient being selected from particular hospitals are not the same. Yes. Xis a discrete and uniform random variable, because patient can be selected from any hospital. O Yes. X is a discrete and uniform random variable, because the probability that a patient is selected from particular hospital is same for each hospital.
