Three steps for creating a probability distribution
What is 1. Make a frequency distribution for the outcomes of the variables Step 2: Find the probability for each outcome Step 3: Graph if needed. Place outcomes on the x-axis and probabilities on the y-axis
The formula for a variance is
What is variance = ((X1^2*P(X1))+ (X2^2*P(X2))+ (X3^2*P(X3))+....+(Xn^2*P(Xn)) - fancy u^2)

Look at board- Is this a probability distribution
What is No
The formal for standard deviation
What is standard deviation= ((X1^2*P(X1))+ (X2^2*P(X2))+ (X3^2*P(X3))+....+(Xn^2*P(Xn)) - fancy u^2) square root of all of that
The formula for Binomial Probability is
What is P(x)= nCx*(p^x)*(q^n-x)
