The first step is to ensure that the given distribution actually is a valid probability distribution. As mentioned earlier, this involves checking two key properties: non-negativity and summation to ...

Given N ten sided dice, and a target number k, what is the probability of acheiving at least n successes if:<BR><BR>a) A die is counted a success if the number rolled on it is greater to or equal to ...

The range of correlation coefficient of any bivariate discrete random vector with finite or countably infinite values is derived. We show analytically that the normal-transformed discrete bivariate ...

A random variable that can take only a certain specified set of individual possible values-for example, the positive integers 1, 2, 3, . . . For example, stock prices are discrete random variables, ...
