A property of continuous distributions is that:
A)As with discrete random variables,the probability distribution can be approximated by a smooth curve.
B)Probabilities for continuous variables can be approximated using discrete random variables.
C)Unlike discrete random variables,probabilities can be found using tables.
D)Unlike discrete random variables,the probability that a continuous random variable equals a specific value is zero [P(X = x)= 0].

For continuous random variables, the probability of an exact value is zero as the probability density function forms a smooth curve without any jumps, unlike the probability mass function for discrete variables.
