Discrete Probability Distributions
Overview: This section covers discrete random variables and their probability distributions.
- Discrete Random Variables:
- Variables that can take on a finite number of values (e.g., the number of students in a class).
- Common Discrete Distributions:
- Binomial Distribution: Models the number of successes in a fixed number of independent Bernoulli trials.
- Poisson Distribution: Models the number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space.
- Real-Life Example:
- The number of customers arriving at a store in an hour can be modeled using a Poisson distribution.
