Below is the probability distribution of the outcomes of tossing two coins. Using this table calculate the probability of getting at least one head. xHHHTTHTT P(x)1/41/41/41/4 2. Using the probability distribution of rolling a fair die, find the probability of getting a number larger tha...
Discrete probability distributions are usually described with a frequency distribution table or other type of graph or chart. For example, the following chart shows the probability of rolling a die. All of the die rolls have an equal chance of being rolled (one out of six, or 1/6). This ...
1 red marble, 3 green, 4 blue. what is the probability of picking a yellow? 4/8 1 red marble, 3 green, 4 blue. what is the probability of not picking blue? 2/6 what is the probability of rolling a die and getting a 1 or 6?
In the above example of rolling a six-sided die, there were only six possible outcomes so we could write down the entire probability distribution in a table. In many scenarios, the number of outcomes can be much larger and hence a table would be tedious to write down. Worse still,...
Rules of Probability Probability Distributions Sampling Distributions Random Variables Random variables are functions with numerical outcomes that occur with some level of uncertainty. For example, rolling a 6-sided die could be considered a random variable with possible outcomes {1,2,3,4,5,6}. ...

Look at the number observed when rolling two standard six-sided dice. Each die has a 1/6 probability of rolling any single number, one through six, but the sum of two dice will form the probability distribution depicted in this image. Seven is the most common outcome (1+6, 6+1, 5+...
We classify distributions based on the type of the outcome and the expected shape of the data. Discrete distributions have a finite number of outcomes, and the subtypes are discrete uniform (e.g., rolling a die), Bernoulli (e.g., flipping a coin), binominal (e.g., how many heads on...
