Question

If x is the probability of an event happening, then which of the following represents x? x < 0 0 < x < 1 0 ≤ x ≤ 1

Answer 1

Answer:

0 ≤ x ≤ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I picked 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 because a probability can be 0, it can be 1, but it can't be greater than 1.

Answer 2

Answer:  The correct option is (C) $0\leq x\leq 1.$

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given that x is the probability of an event happening.

We are to select the correct option.

We know that

the probability of the happening of any event lies between 0 and 1.

If an event is a sure event, then its probability of happening is 1 and if it is a null event, then its probability of happening is 0.

For all the other events, the probability lies between 0 and 1.

So, we get

$0\leq x\leq 1.$

Thus, (C) is the correct option.
