The probability density function (pdf) of a discrete random variable x is (1) f(x) = (4 - x)/10, x = 0,1,2,3 Calculate mu, sigma, and sigma2. Find P(x = 2), P(x 2), and P(x 2). Justify whether or not the distribution below is a theoretical probability distribution. (1)Solution
3) a)
E(x)=sum(x*f(x))=1
var=E(X^2)-(E(X))^2
E(X^2)=sum(X^2*f(x))
E(X^2)=2
var=2-1=1
sd=sqrt(var)=1
b) form the table P(X=2)=0.2
P(X<=2)=P(x=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)=0.4+0.3+0.2=0.9
P(X>=2)=P(X=2)+P(X=3)=0.2+0.1=0.3
4)
if sum(p(X))=1, then it is a frequency distirbution.
Since the total is 1, it is a frequency distirbution.
| x | f(x) | x*f(x) | 
| 0 | 0.4 | 0 | 
| 1 | 0.3 | 0.3 | 
| 2 | 0.2 | 0.4 | 
| 3 | 0.1 | 0.3 |
