The probability function is always______________?
Correct answer: B. Non Negative
- A. Negative

- C. Positive
- D. None
Explanation
A probability function cannot assign a negative value, so it is non-negative for every possible outcome. It may equal zero, which is why “positive” is less accurate than “non-negative.”
