Answer:

A. Probability = 0.02

B. This is in a cumulative frequency table in the attachment I added

Step-by-step explanation:

A. We have these following probabilities

Prob(X=0) = 0.05

Prob(x= 2) = 0.30

Prob(X = 4) = 0.50

Prob(X < 2) = Prob(X=0) + prob(X=1)

0.18 = 0.05 + prob(X=1)

prob(X=1) = 0.13

A. Prob(x = 3)

= 1 - (0.05 + 0.13 + 0.30 + 0.50)

= 0.02

Probability of buying only 3 times = 2%

B. The cumulative frequency is in the attachment.
