Elementary mapping properties show that if g is a Borel function, then Z = g ( X ) is a random variable; similarly, if h is a Borel function of two variables, then Z = h ( X, Y ) is a random variable. In this chapter, we address the basic problem: Given the distribution for ...
3.2.3 Functions of Random VariablesIf XX is a random variable and Y=g(X)Y=g(X), then YY itself is a random variable. Thus, we can talk about its PMF, CDF, and expected value. First, note that the range of YY can be written as ...
Example Let be a uniform random variable on the interval , i.e., a continuous random variable with supportand probability density functionLet where is a constant. The support of iswhere we can safely ignore the fact that , because is a zero-probability event (see Continuous random variables ...
A random variable is a rule that assigns a numeric value to every possible outcome in a sample space. Random variables may be discrete or continuous in nature. A random variable is discrete if it assumes only discrete values within a specified interval.
Consider the notion of a "square-law" detector: If x is an input to the detector, then y = x2 is its output or detected value. Consider next the case where x is a random variable with probability law ...Frieden, B. RoyThe University of Arizona...

Generating functions are a special type of functions of the random variables. The moment generating function or MGF is used to find moments for random variables. Due to its uniqueness property, it is used to find the probability distribution of a function of ran...
Moment generating functions can be used to find the mean and variance of a continuous random variable. In this lesson, learn more about moment generating functions and how they are used. Understanding Moment Generating Functions Suppose that you've decided to measure the high temperature at ...
