Probability Distribution Table
is a table that contains the set of all
possible values of a random
variable together with their
corresponding probabilities.
RANDOM EXPERIMENT 1:
TOSSING 2 COINS
Random
Variable:
Number of
tails occur
PROBABI
LITY
tells us how often some event happens
after many repeated trials.
Probability =
RANDOM EXPERIMENT 1:
TOSSING 2 COINS
Let Y be the
random
variable
representing
the sum of two
dice.

Find the probability of the given using the table:
1. P(Y = 2) = 0.03
2. P(Y 10) = 0.17
3. P(Y 6) = 0.42
4. P(3 Y 7) = 0.56
