Probability function (p.f) of a random variable

306 Views Asked by At

If we have a Bernoulli random variable $W$ that is derived from a Variable $T$ (Poisson $\lambda$), by the following rules $W =$ (if $T=0$ then $W=1$ and if $T>0$ then $W=0$), I am having trouble finding the pf for $W$. Any ideas?

Hint: We have $\Pr(W=1)=\Pr(T=0)=e^{-\lambda}$.
