Horses are housed in pasture, pipe pens, or barn stalls at a local horse barn. let x = the number of horses housed in barn stalls. then x is:

X is discrete random variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Horses are housed in pasture, pipe pens, or barn stalls at a local horse barn.

Let X be the number of horses that are housed in the pasture, pipe pens, or barn stalls.

Discrete random variable: If the number of values is finite then C is discrete in nature.

Random variable; If the variable can take any value between two defined value then X is called continuous in nature.

Here the number of horses are finite and we can count them easily.

Thus, X is discrete random variable.
