Q. Y is the number of desserts available in a randomly chosen restaurant.Is the random variable Y discrete or continuous?Choices:[A]discrete[B]continuous
Random Variable Y: The random variable Y represents the number of desserts available, which can only take on distinct, separate values (e.g., 1 dessert, 2 desserts, 3 desserts, etc.). It cannot take on all values within an interval because you cannot have a fraction of a dessert in this context.
Distinct Values: Since Y can only take on distinct, separate values and cannot be a fraction, Y is a discrete random variable.
