1 Probability and Statistics The Binomial Probability Distribution and Related Topics Chapter 5 Section 1 Introduction to Random Variables and Probability Distributions Essential Question: How are the mean and the standard deviation determined from a discrete probability distribution? Student Objectives: The student will distinguish between random and discrete random variables. The student will graph discrete probability distributions. The student will compute the mean and standard deviation for a discrete probability distribution. The student will compute the mean and standard deviation for a linear function of a random variable x. The student will compute the mean and standard deviation for a linear combination of two independent random variables. Terms: Continuous random variable Discrete random variable Linear function of a random variable Linear function of two independent random variables Mean ( µ ) Probability Distribution Random variable Standard deviation ( )
2 Equations: Mean: Expected value for a discrete probability distribution: µ = $ Standard Deviation: = x " µ Linear function: L = a + bx ( ) 2 # P( x) Mean of a linear function: µ L = a + bµ Variance of a linear function: L 2 = b 2 2 Standard deviation for a linear function: L = b 2 2 = b "( x P( x) ) Linear combination: W = ax 1 + bx 2 Mean of a linear combination: µ W = aµ 1 + bµ 2 Variance of a linear combination: 2 W = a b Standard deviation for a linear function: W = a b Graphing Calculator Skills: Calculating the values of the mean and standard deviation for a discrete probability distribution: 1-Var Stats L 1,L 2 where L 1 contains the x-values and L 2 contains the probabilities. Sample Questions: Directions: In problems #1-7, identify each of the following as either a discrete or continuous random variable. 1. The number of people who are in a car. 2. The number of miles you drive in one week. 3. The weight of a box of cereal. 4. The number of boxes of cereal you buy in one year.
3 5. The length of time you spend eating your lunch. 6. The number of patients on a psychiatric ward in one day. 7. The volume of blood that is transfused during an operation. 8. In a personality inventory test for passive-aggressive traits, the possible scores are: 1 = extremely passive 2 = moderately passive 3 = neither 4 = moderately aggressive 5 = extremely aggressive The test was administered to a group of 110 people and the results were as follows: x (score) f (frequency) Construct a probability distribution table, calculate the expected value (the mean) and the standard deviation. Use a histogram to graph the probability distribution. x f P(x) x P( x) x µ ( x µ ) 2 ( x µ ) 2 " P( x) Sum:

5 9. A local automotive repair shop has two work centers. The first center examines the car with a computer diagnostic machine and the second center repairs the car. Let x 1 and x 2 be random variables representing the time in minutes to diagnose and repair the car. Assume x 1 and x 2 are independent random variables. A recent study of the repair center produced the following data: Computer diagnose x 1 : µ 1 = 18.5 minutes and 1 = 5.6 minutes Repair x 2 : µ 2 = minutes and 2 = 17.2 minutes a. Suppose it costs $1.25 per minute to diagnose the automobile and $0.95 per minute to repair the automobile (without parts). Compute the linear combination equation, mean, variance, and the standard deviation of W. b. The repair shop charges a flat rate of $0.75 per minute to diagnose the car and if no repairs are needed, there is an additional $25.00 service charge. Compute the linear equation, mean, variance, and standard deviation of L. Homework: Pages Exercises: #1-19 odd Exercises: #2-18 even
