What are the requirements for a discrete probability distribution?
What are the two requirements for a discrete probability distribution? The first rule states that the sum of the probabilities must equal 1. The second rule states that each probability must be between 0 and 1, inclusive.
What is the moment of a discrete random variable?
A central moment of a random variable is the moment of that random variable after its expected value is subtracted. The variance of X can also be written as Var X . The positive square root of the variance is the standard deviation.
What are the moments of a distribution?
1) The mean, which indicates the central tendency of a distribution. 2) The second moment is the variance, which indicates the width or deviation. 3) The third moment is the skewness, which indicates any asymmetric 'leaning' to either left or right.
Are the two requirements for a discrete probability distribution met?
The probabilities in the probability distribution of a random variable X must satisfy the following two conditions: Each probability P(x) must be between 0 and 1: 0≤P(x)≤1. The sum of all the possible probabilities is 1: ∑P(x)=1.
