- Can i have a worked example please. Thanks!arrow_forwardDefinition. When the sample space of an experiment is finite, a probability density function for a random variable is a table of all possible values of X and their corresponding probabilities. Remember that random variables assign numbers to each outcome. Each outcome has some probability of occurring. IfXis a random variable, when we write Pr[X= 2], we mean Pr[E], where E is the event consisting of all outcomes to which the random variable eX assigns 2. To further explain this complete the following example. Suppose a fair coin is flipped 3 times. A random variable X assigns the number of heads to each outcome. (a) What are all possible values of X? b) Make a table of each of these values and the probabilities associated with them. Again, this table is called the probability density function of X.( c) Suppose that the random variable Y is 2 times the number of the head plus the number of tails flipped, find the probability density function of Yf or this experiment.arrow_forwardASAP, solve now I need it within 1 hour. previous answers are always wrong and incomplete. Solve: A. Determine the variance of the diameter of the holes. B. Determine the cumulative distribution function and draw the curve of the cumulative distribution function. C. Using the cumulative distribution function, determine the probability that a diameter exceeds 5.1 millimeters.arrow_forward
