The manager of a baseball team has determined the number of walks, x, issued in a game by one of thepitchers. The probability distribution for x is as follows:P(x)1/20X12/2023/20311/2043/20a) Is this a correct probability distribution? Why or why not?b) Calculate the mean (expected value) for x.c) Construct the probability distribution histogram for the number of 'walks'.

A basketball player makes 70% of her free throws. When fouled, she gets to take two free throws. Let X represent the number of free throws made in two tries. The probability distribution for the number of free throws she makes in two attempts is summarized in the following table: Number of free throws made Probability P(X 1) P(X ≤1) 0 O P(X ≥ 1) 0.09 1 The probability statement representing that she makes at least one free throw is expressed as 0.42 2 0.49
