Question: How many children do women give birth to during their childbearing years? Choose at random an American woman who is past childbearing (the few women with 6 or more children are included in the "5 children" group):

Number of Children (X) Probability
0 0.193
1 0.174
2 0.344
3 0.181
4 0.07
5 0.034
  1. Check that this probability distribution satisfies the two requirements for a legitimate discrete probability model.
  2. Describe in words the event P(X \(\le \) 2)?
  3. What is the probability a the event you described in part b?
  4. What is the probability P(X < 2)?
  5. What is the probability a woman has 3 or more children?
