### Question 1
**Complete the following probability distribution table:**
#### Probability Distribution Table
| X | P(X) |
|-----|------|
| -18 | 0.1 |
| 17 | 0.4 |
| 23 | 0.1 |
| 45 | |
The table above outlines a discrete probability distribution. Your task is to complete the missing probability value for X = 45 to ensure that the sum of all probabilities equals 1, which is a fundamental property of probability distributions.

Given Information:
Probability distribution table:
X | P(X) |
-18 | 0.1 |
17 | 0.4 |
23 | 0.1 |
45 |
A discrete probability distribution lists each possible that a random variable takes, along with its probability:
For a discrete probability distribution, probability of each value of the random variable X, is between 0 and 1 i.e.,
And the Sum of all probability is 1 i.e.,
