The Hat Problem. What is the expected value of , the number of people that get back their own hat? Conditioning a Random Variable on an Event If are disjoint events that form a partition of the sample space, w
The sample space S is the domain of the random variable and the set of all values taken on by X is the range of the random variable. The range is a subset of all real numbers −∞,∞. If the range assumes values from a countable set (i.e., takes on only a finite number of ...

What is a Continuous Random Variable? Suppose a dart is thrown at a dartboard with a radius of 1 meter, and it lands at some point on the board. The random variable representing the distance from the center must be some number between 0 and 1 meters. Therefore the sample space for this...
隨機變數(Random Variable) 定義:隨機變數是一函數X,其樣本空間S對應到實數R, 即 X : S R 常以小寫 x 表隨機變數的值,隨機變數的每一可能值 x 代表一事件。 隨機變數(Random Variable) 2. 隨機變數類型: 2.1 離散型隨機變數:若隨機變數的值域X(S)含有有限個或無限但為可數個(Countable)樣本點,則稱S為...

A random variable X has a N(15,9) distribution. A random sample of 5 observations of this distribution is to be taken. The mean of the 5 observations is denoted by X.Calculate the probability that X is less than 17. A random variable Y has mean 7 and variance 20. A random sample ...
The values taken by the random variable are directions. X=the angle spun Possible Sample space North, West, East, South, Southeast, etc. Degrees clockwise from North (real numbers from the interval [0, 360]) The probability: of choosing a number in [0, 180] is 1⁄2 densit...
More generally, we can consider a random variable that takes values in an interval ,and again assume that any two subintervals of the same length have the same probability. Example 3.2. Piecewise Constant PDF. What is the PDF of the driving time,viewed as a random variable ? Generalizing...
