Explanation Given: The area of a histogram associated with a probability distribution is a number between 0 and 1 . Approach: The width of histogram is 1 and height equals to the probability associated with the associated value of the random variable. The expression for the height of histogram can be written as below from the probability formula, P ( X = x 1 ) + P ( X = x 2 ) + ...... + P ( X = x n ) = 1 . Calculation: Suppose X is a finite discrete random variable assuming the values x 1 , x 2 , x 3 ,

Addition Rule of Probability

It simply refers to the likelihood of an event taking place whenever the occurrence of an event is uncertain. The probability of a single event can be calculated by dividing the number of successful trials of that event by the total number of trials.

Expected Value

When a large number of trials are performed for any random variable ‘X’, the predicted result is most likely the mean of all the outcomes for the random variable and it is known as expected value also known as expectation. The expected value, also known …

Probability Distributions

Understanding probability is necessary to know the probability distributions. In statistics, probability is how the uncertainty of an event is measured. This event can be anything. The most common examples include tossing a coin, rolling a die, or choosi…

Basic Probability

The simple definition of probability it is a chance of the occurrence of an event. It is defined in numerical form and the probability value is between 0 to 1. The probability value 0 indicates that there is no chance of that event occurring and the prob…

5) You are purchasing a game for $30. You have a 5% off coupon and sales tax is 5%. What will your final price be? Does it matter if you take off the coupon first or add in the tax first? 6) You have ten coupons that allow you to take 10% off the sales price of a jacket, and for some strange reason, the store is going to allow you to use all ten coupons! Does this mean you get the jacket for free? Let's really think about what would happen at the checkout. First, the teller would scan the price tag on the jacket, and the computer would show the price is $100. After the teller scans the first coupon, the computer will take 10% off of $100, and show the price is $90. (Right? Think about why this is.) Then after the teller scans the second coupon, the computer will take 10% off of $90. (a) Continue this reasoning to fill in the table below showing the price of the jacket (y) after you apply x coupons. (b) Make a graph showing the price of the jacket from x = 0 to x = 10 coupons applied.…
