Random Variables and
Probability Distribution
Learning Competencies
Objectives
Variable is a characteristic or
attribute that can assume different
values. We use capital letters to
denote or represent a variable.
VOCABULARY
A random variable is a function
that associates a real number to
each element in the sample space.
It is a variable whose values are
determined by chance.
EXAMPLE
Drawing balls from an urn
Two balls are drawn in succession without
replacement from an urn containing 5 red balls and 6
blue balls. Let Z be the random variable representing
the number of blue balls. Find the values of the
random variable Z. Complete the table.
STEPS SOLUTION
1. Determine the sample space. Let B represent The sample space for this experiment is
the blue ball and R represent the red ball. S=(RR,RB,BR,BB)
RR 0
RB 1
BR 1
BB 2
TTT 3

THT 2
HTT 2
HHT 1
HTH 1
THH 1
HHH 0
So the possible values of the random variable Y are 0,1,2 and 3.
TYPES OF RANDOM VARIABLE
Discrete Continuous
Flipping 4 coin/s
* Use H for Head and T for Tail
