- 4. Discrete probability distributions #1 You may calculate the answers of the following questions using the appropriate probability distribution function from the equations in your textbook. (You will need to read the questions first to determine the appropriate distribution.) However, you may also determine these answers by using the Distributions tool. Select the appropriate distribution from the dropdown box in the upper left-hand corner. Set the parameters accordingly, and select the radio button in the lower left-hand corner depending on whether you want the probability of a single outcome (left) or a cumulative probability (right).
