Answer:

Table 1 is the only table which represents PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION table.

Explanation:

In any given probability distribution:

1) The probability of each event should be strictly POSITIVE.

2) Sum of all events in a a distribution should be 1.

Now, here

A) All of the values of probability (0.11, 0..5, 0.49,0.35) are positive.

Also, 0.11 + 0.5 + 0.49 + 0.35 = 1

So, the given table is a PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION.

B)The table is NOT a PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION as here

P(Blue) = -1, which is negative.

C)The table is NOT a PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION as here

P(Green) = -0.49, which is negative.

D)The table is NOT a PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION as here

P(Purple) = -0.1, which is negative.

Hence, table 1 is the only table which represents PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION table.
