Reading 4b: Discrete Random Variables: Expected Value
class 4, Discrete Random Variables: Expected Value, Spring 2014 4 It is possible to show that the sum of this series is indeed np. We think you’ll agree that the method using Property (1) is much easier. Example 8. (For infinite random variables …

Reading 5b: Continuous Random Variables
ocw.mit.eduContinuous Random Variables and Probability Density Func tions. A continuous random variable takes a range of values, which may be finite or infinite in extent. Here are a few examples of ranges: [0, 1], [0, ∞), (−∞, ∞), [a, b]. Definition: A random variable X is continuous if there is a function f(x) such that for any c ≤ d we ...

www.kent.ac.ukCONTINUOUS RANDOM VARIABLES Introduction Reminder: a rv is said to be continuous if its cdf is a continuous function. If the function FX(x) = Pr(X ≤ x) of x is continuous, what is Pr(X = x)? Pr(X = x) = Pr(X ≤ x) − Pr(X < x) = 0, by continuity A continuous random variable does not possess a probability function.
Random Variables and Distribution Functions
www.math.arizona.eduIntroduction to the Science of Statistics Random Variables and Distribution Functions We often create new random variables via composition of functions:! 7!X(!) 7!f(X(!)) Thus, if X is a random variable, then so are X2, exp↵X, p X2 +1, tan2 X, bXc and so on. The last of these, rounding down X to the nearest integer, is called the floor function.
