Answer:
Option d.
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The graph of a continuous probability distribution is a curve. Probability is represented by area under the curve.
The curve is called the probability density function (abbreviated as pdf).
We use the symbol f(x) to represent the curve
therefore
The probability density function f(x) represents . the height of the function at x.
Using probability concepts, it is found that the correct option is:
a. the probability at a given value of x
In a distribution, the notation f(x) is the equivalent to the probability of event x, that is:
[tex]f(x) = P(X = x)[/tex]
Thus the correct option is a.
The area under the curve is given by the cumulative distribution, which is given by:
[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int_0^x f(x) dx[/tex]
Thus it is not f(x).
And f(x) can also be the height of the relative frequency function, but not of the function itself.
