Answer to Question #193988 in Statistics and Probability for Isaac Suñer

Question

is a table, a graph or a formula listing all possible values that a discrete random variable can take on, along with the associated probabilities?

Answer 1

Yes.

• A random variable is a variable taking on numerical values determined by the outcome of a random phenomenon.
• The probability distribution of a random variable x tells us what the possible values of x are and what probabilities are assigned to those values.
• A discrete random variable has a countable number of possible values.
