Chapter 11.3, Problem 11MCQ

To determine

To find: The random variable for the distribution and its classification as random or discrete.

Answer to Problem 11MCQ

Therandom variable $X$ is between an interval $\left\{a<x<b\right\}$ and it is a continuous random variable.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Theheight of the student in the gym class.

Conclusion:

Consider the random variable is X that is the height of the student in the gym class.

Then, the height of the student in the gym class is between certain interval a and b and the event space is of random variable that is $\left\{a<x<b\right\}$ .

That is the random variable can take infinitely many values. This, shows that variable for height of the student in the gym class.
