a.
The given data comprises responses of 2000 college graduates who graduated five years
ago, in regard to question that how long they have worked for their customers. It is
required to develop an empirical discrete probability distribution for x, time with current
employers.
b.
f ( x) 0 (1)
f ( x) 1 (2)
The probability for random variable x satisfy equation 1, f ( x) is greater than or equal to
0, for all value of x. In addition probabilities sum to 1. Therefore, both the conditions are
met. Hence, the discrete probability distribution is valid.
c.
Add the probabilities corresponding to x 4, 5 . This would give the probability that
respondent had been at his/her current place of employment for more than 3 years
P( x 3) P( x 4) P( x 5)
= 0.109+0.288
= 0.397
