I. Discrete Probability Distributions 1. Coronary heart disease in the Philippines reached 87,881 or 16.86% of total deaths according to the latest World Health Organization (WHO) data published in May 2014. According to a study, the probability of death after attack in the absence of treatment before reaching the hospital is 0.25 (i.e. 25 out of 100 patients). Suppose there are four patients who suffer from heart attack and have not received any medical treatments before reaching the hospital and assuming that all patients are at the same risk of a fatal attack:
