Random Variables and Probability Distributions - It is often very important to allocate a numerical value to an outcome of a random experiment. For example, consider an experiment of tossing a coin twice and note the number of heads (x) obtained. Outcome HH HT TH TT No. of heads..

It is often very important to allocate a numerical value to an outcome of a random experiment. For example, consider an experiment of tossing a coin twice and note the number of heads (x) obtained. Outcome HH HT TH TT No. of heads (x) 2 1 1 0 x is called a random variable, which can assume the valu..

Let S be a sample space associated with a given random experiment. A real valued function X which assigns to each w i S, a unique real number, X( w i ) = x i is called a random variable . Two types of random variables are 1. Continuous random variable, 2. discrete ra..

>If A, B and C are mutually exclusive then Total Probability: P(A) = P(E 1 ) P(A|E 1 ) + P(E 2 ) P(A|E 2 )+ +P(E n ) P(A|E n ) Random variable: A real valued function 'X' defined on the sample space is called a random variable. Discrete random variable: A random variable which c..

If x is a discrete random variable assuming the values x 1 , x 2 , x 3 ,….,x n with probabilities p 1 , p 2 , p 3 ,…., p n respectively then (x 1 ,p 1 ), (x 2 , p 2 ),…(x n , p n ) defines a probability distribution of X. Mathematical Expecta..

Poisson distribution is a limiting process of binomial distribution. Poisson distribution occurs when there are events which do not occur as outcomes of a definite number of outcomes. Poisson distribution is used under the following conditions: ..

Binomial Distribution - A trial, which has only two outcomes i.e., "a success" or "a failure", is called a Bernoulli trial. Let X be the number of successes in a Bernoulli trial, then X can take 0 or 1 and P(X =1) = p = "probability of a success" P(X = 0) = 1 - p = q = "pro..

Frequency Distribution - A teacher gave a test to a class of 26 students. The maximum mark is 5. The marks obtained by the pupils are: Such data as above is called ungrouped (or raw) data. We may arrange the marks in ascending or descending order. The data so represented is called an arra..

The set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment is called the sample space, associated with the random experimen..
