Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The probability that x = 6 or less is the sum of the probabilities that x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. From the given probability distribution, we have:P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x = 2) + P(x = 3) + P(x = 4) + P(x = 5) + P(x = 6) = 0.06 + 0.12 + 0.18 + 0.24 + 0.20 + 0.12 + 0.08 = 0.44Therefore, the approximate probability that x = 6 or less is 0.44, which is rounded to 0.44.
