  3. Definition 2.4 Suppose that r.v. X assume value x1, x2, …, xn, … with probability p1, p2, …, pn, …respectively, then it is said that r.v. X is a discrete r.v. and name P{X=xk}=pk, (k=1, 2, … ) the distribution law of X. The distribution law of X can be represented by X～ P{X=xk}=pk, (k=1, 2, … )， or Xx1 x2…xK … Pk p1 p2 … pk …

  4. 2. Characteristics of distribution law (1) pk  0, k＝1, 2, … ; (2) Example 1 Suppose that there are 5 balls in a bag, 2 of them are white and the others are black, now pick 3 ball from the bag without putting back, try to determine the distribution law of r.v. X, where X is the number of white ball among the 3 picked ball. In fact, X assumes value 0，1，2 and

  6. Several Important Discrete R.V. (0-1) distribution let X denote the number that event A appeared in a trail, then X has the following distribution law X～P{X＝k}＝pk(1－p)1－k, (0<p<1) k＝0，1 or and X is said to follow a (0-1) distribution

  7. Let X denote the numbers that event A appeared in a n-repeated Bernoulli experiment, then X is said to follow a binomial distribution with parameters n, p and represent it by XB (n, p). The distribution law of X is given as : Binomial distribution

  8. Bernoulli Trial -P29 one of a sequence of independent experiments each of which has the same probability of success 1. n-repeated 2. two possible outcomes :success & failure 3. P (success)=p 4. independent

  10. ExampleA soldier try to shot a bomber with probability 0.02 that he can hit the target, suppose the he independently give the target 400 shots, try to determine the probability that he hit the target at least for twice. Answer Let X represent the number that hit the target in 400 shots, Then X～B(400, 0.02), thus P{X2}＝1－ P{X＝0}－P {X＝1}＝1－0.98400-(400)(0.02)(0.98)399 =… Poisson theorem If Xn~B(n, p), (n＝0, 1, 2,…) and n is large enough, p is very small, denote =np，then

  11. Now, lets try to solve the aforementionedproblem by putting  =np＝(400)(0.02)＝8, then approximatelywe have P{X2}＝1－ P{X＝0}－P {X＝1} ＝1－(1＋8)e－8＝0.996981. Poisson distribution-P32 X～P{X＝k}＝ , k＝0, 1, 2, … (0)
