LESSON OVERVIEW/INTRODUCTION:
With this module, learners will
demonstrates understanding of key
concepts of random variables and
probability distributions.
2. Discrete Random
- it Variable
has the values that can be
counted.
3. Continuous Random
Variable
- it can assume all values in
the interval between any two
given values.
4. Sample
Space
- the set of all possible
outcomes of an experiment.
5. Probability
distribution
- it consist of the values a
random variable can assume
and the corresponding
probabilities of the value.
6. 𝝨
– this symbol is called
