Lesson:

Definition: Bernoulli’s distribution:

It is discovered by a Swiss Mathematician James Bernoulli (1654-1705) for a trial which has only two outcomes viz. a success with probability p and a failure with probability q= 1 – p.

A random variable X is said to follow a bernoulli distribution if its probability mass function.

Notation: X ~ B(p)

$1$

Explanation:

Characteristics of Bernoulli Distribution:

Number of trials is one
q = 1 – p
Constants of the distributions
mean = p
variance = pq
standard deviation = \$\sqrt(pq)\$
