We can count the TVs sold, and there is a finite upper limit
on the number that might be sold (which is the number of
TVs in stock).

Probability of an event
• We can use the probability distribution table to find
the probability of an event.
P(a ≤ x ≤ b) =∑ f ( xi )
x∈( a ,b )
• Previous example:
P( x < 3) =P( x =0) + P( x =1) + P( x = 2) =0.85
P(2 ≤ x ≤ 4) = P( x =2) + P( x = 3) + P( x =4) =0.35

Binomial Probabilities and Cumulative
Probabilities (累計機率)
• Statisticians have developed tables that give
probabilities and cumulative probabilities for a
binomial experiment random variable.
• These tables can be found in some statistics
textbooks.
• With modern calculators and the capability of
statistical software packages, such tables are almost
unnecessary.

• Company A has two factories: one in Hsinchu with 20
employees and another in Tainan with 10 employees.
5 employees are chosen to fill out questionnaires
about employee work hours.
1. What is the probability that none of the employees
from Tainan are chosen?
