Question

Define $P(x),$or the probability of$x.$

Short answer

The probability that a Physics major will undertake post-graduate study for$x$years is defined as$P\left(x\right).$

Step-by-step solution

Given Information

A physics teacher likes to know what percentage of physics students will undertake post-graduate study in the coming years. He is in knowledge of the following probability distribution:

Explanation

$P(x)$is defined as the probability that Physics major does post-graduate study for $x$number of years. By looking at the table we can say that probability that Physics major student will do post graduate for$1$year is $0.352$years is $0.20$and so on.
