    five babies are randomly selected. In each group‚ the random variable x is the number of babies with green eyes (based on data from a study by Dr. Sorita Soni at Indiana University). (The symbol 0+ denotes a positive probability value that is very small). X | P(x) | 0 | .528 | 1 | .360 | 2 | .098 | 3 | .013 | 4 | .001 | 5 | 0+ | P(x) = .528 + .360 + .098 + .013 + .001 + (0+) = 1 This is a probability distribution because P(x) = 1 for the data given Standard Deviation = 4.9344 14
