Question
**Question:**

Given this table, find the probability of \( x \) less than or equal to 1.

| x | 0  | 1  | 2  |
|---|----|----|----|
| P(x) | 0.50 | 0.25 | 0.25 |

**Options:**
- ☐ 0.75
- ☐ 0.25
- ☐ 1
- ☐ 0.50 

**Explanation:**

To find the probability \( P(x \leq 1) \), sum the probabilities for \( x = 0 \) and \( x = 1 \):

\[ P(x \leq 1) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) \]
\[ P(x \leq 1) = 0.50 + 0.25 \]
\[ P(x \leq 1) = 0.75 \]

Thus, the correct answer is 0.75.
