| xx | 2020 | 2121 | 2222 | 2323 | 2424 |

Let xx be the ages of students in a class. Given the frequency
distribution F(x)F(x) above, determine the following
probabilities:
(a) P(x=22)=P(x=22)=
(b) P(x≥23 or x<21)=P(x≥23 or x<21)=
(c) P(20≤x<22)=P(20≤x<22)=
Total frequency = 21 + 4 + 5 + 8 + 2 = 40
a) P(X = 22) = 5 / 40 = 0.125
b) P(X > 23 or X < 21) = P(X > 23) + P(X < 21)
= P(X = 23) + P(X = 24) + P(X = 20)
= 8/40 + 2/40 + 21/40
= 0.775
c) P(20 < X < 22) = P(X = 20) + P(X = 21)
= 21/40 + 4/40
= 0.625
