To find out the wrong in the probability distribution with reason

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 14HP

The wrong in this probability distribution is that events involving athletic ability is considered here and shooting foul shot is not a random event.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The probability of shooting all 3 foul shots is 0.56

The probability of shooting 2 of 3 foul shots is 0.26

The probability of shooting 1 of 3 foul shots is 0.13

The probability of shooting 0 of 3 foul shots 0.02

In a probability distribution shooting foul shot is a random event and events involving athletic ability should not be considered when making probability distribution.

Therefore, the wrong in this probability distribution is that events involving athletic ability is considered here and shooting foul shot is not a random event.
