, Chapter 4: Continuous random variables and probability distributions
4.1: Probability distributions and probability density functions
Continuous random variable: random variable with an interval (either finite or infinite) of
real number for its range.
Probability density function (f(x)): can be used to describe probability distribution of
continuous random variable X. If an interval is likely to contain a value for X, its probability is
large and it corresponds to large values for f(x).
3 conditions:
1. 𝑓(𝑥) ≥ 0
∞
2. ∫−∞ 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = 1
𝑏
3. 𝑃(𝑎 ≤ 𝑋 ≤ 𝑏) = ∫𝑎 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = area under f(x) from a to b for any a and b
Histogram: approximation to a probability density function. The area of each interval of the
histogram equals the relative frequency (proportion) of measurements in the interval.
𝑃(𝑋 = 𝑥) = 0
If X is a continuous random variable, for any x1 and x2:
𝑃(𝑥1 ≤ 𝑋 ≤ 𝑥2 ) = 𝑃(𝑥1 < 𝑋 ≤ 𝑥2 ) = 𝑃(𝑥1 ≤ 𝑋 < 𝑥2 ) = 𝑃(𝑥1 < 𝑋 < 𝑥2 )
4.2: Cumulative distribution functions
The cumulative distribution function of a continuous random variable X is:
𝑥
𝐹(𝑥) = 𝑃(𝑋 ≤ 𝑥) = ∫−∞ 𝑓(𝑢) 𝑑𝑢 𝑓𝑜𝑟 − ∞ < 𝑥 < ∞
Any < can be changed into ≤ in the definition of F(x). The probability density function of a
continuous random variable can be determined from the cumulative distribution function by
differentiating.
𝑑 𝑥 𝑑𝐹(𝑥)
∫ 𝑓(𝑢) 𝑑𝑢
𝑑𝑥 −∞
= 𝑓(𝑥) and 𝑓(𝑥) =
𝑑𝑥
4.3: Mean and variance of a continuous random variable
Suppose that X is a continuous random variable with probability density function f(x).
Mean / expected value:
∞
𝜇 = 𝐸(𝑋) = ∫ 𝑥𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥
−∞
∞
𝐸[ℎ(𝑋)] = ∫ ℎ(𝑥)𝑓(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥
