    The space sample isThe space sample is

    S =S = { , , , };{ , , , };

    We can get eitherWe can get eitherno headno head ororoneone head orhead ortwotwoheadsheads from this trial. So, the discrete randomfrom this trial. So, the discrete random

    variablevariable X,X, can take the value 0, 1 and 2. Therefore,can take the value 0, 1 and 2. Therefore,

    The discrete variable is associated with the

    probabilities, is called discrete probability

    distribution.Xdistribution could be shown ina histogram.

  • 8/8/2019 StatChapter7._studentppt

    6/67

    From Figure 7.1 we can see that the areafor every bar in the histogram are the

    probability value forX=x. The area of everybar is between 0 and 1 and the total areaof the bars are equal to 1. Thus, weunderstand the total probability of all the

    random variables, X in the sample spaceshould equal to 1.

    Probability for X is written within the range

    , and the total = 1.
