Solve the following problem :

The probability distribution of a discrete r.v. X is as follows.

X 1 2 3 4 5 6
(X = x) k 2k 3k 4k 5k 6k

Determine the value of k.

उत्तर

Since P(X) is the probability distribution of X,

\[\sum\limits_{x =1}^{6}\text{P}(X = x) = 1\]

∴ k + 2k + 3k + 4k + 5k + 6k = 1
∴ 21k = 1

∴ k = `(1)/(21)`.
