No. If the variable is continuous, for example, height or mass of something, or time interval, then the set of possible outcomes is infinite.

Is in the normal distribution the total area beneath the curve represent the probability for all possible outcomes for a given event?

Yes. The total area under any probability distribution curve is always the probability of all possible outcomes - which is 1.

What are two requirements for a discrete probability distribution?

Not sure about only two requirements. I would say all of the following:there is a finite (or countably infinite) number of mutually exclusive outcomes possible,the probability of each outcome is a number between 0 and 1,the sum of the probabilities over all possible outcomes is 1.The Poisson distribution, for example, is countably infinite.


What is the size of the sample space for all the outcomes possible from rolling four dice?

There is 6 possible outcomes per roll of a die. So, there are 6*6*6*6 outcomes or 64 or 1296 possible outcomes.


A set of outcomes are called what?

A set of outcomes are called results. All possible outcomes are referred to as the sample space.
