Anumerical description of the outcome of an experiment is called a :

a. descriptive statistic
b. probability function
c. variance
d. random variable

Option D) Random variable

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

A random variable is a numerical description of the outcome of a statistical experiment. A random variable that may assume only a finite number or an infinite sequence of values.If it assumes only finite number that could be count it is known as discrete random variable.Random variable that may assume any value in some interval on the real number line is said to be continuous random variable.

Thus,

A numerical description of the outcome of an experiment is called a random variable.
