  1. Probability Distributions – Finite RV’s • Random variables first introduced in Expected Value • def. A finite random variable is a random variable that can assume only a finite number of distinct values • Example: Experiment-Toss a fair coin twice X( random variable)- number of heads X can assume only 0, 1, 2
