possible outcomes

Module 3: Finding Possible Values of a Random Variable C. To understand how one finds possible values of random variables, do the activity below. Suppose three laptops are tested at random. We want to find out the number of non-defective laptops. Thus, to each outcome in the sample space we shall assign a value. These are O, 1, 2, or 3. If there is no defective laptop, we assign the number O; if there is 1 non-defective laptop, we assign the number 1; if there are two non-defective laptops, we assign the number 2 and 3, if there are three non-defective laptops. The number of non-defective laptops is a random variable. Let D represents the defective laptop and N represents the non-defective laptop. If we let X be the random variable representing the number of non-defective laptops, show the values of the random variable X. Complete the table below to show the values of the random variable. Value of the Random Variable X Possible (number of non-defective laptops) Outcome
