CHAPTER 5: PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION

Topics:

Probability Distribution for Continuous Random Variable

Video V1W12: Probability Distribution f(x), Mean E(X) and Variance Var(X) of Continuous Random Variable

LEARNING OBJECTIVE 1:

Continuous Random Variable

Students need to know how to find Probability Density Function, f(x) of a continuous random variable.

👉🏼 Refer Pg. 145 - 150

👉🏼 Watch Video V1W12 above

👉🏼 Redo Example 18 [ for f(x) ], Pg. 145 - 146

👉🏼 Do Example 19 and Example 20 [ for f(x) ], Pg. 147 - 150

NOTE:

Please skip topic Cumulative Distribution function, F(X) as this topic has been discarded from the syllabus. (from minute 25:18 until minute 46:06 of Video V1W12 )

LEARNING OBJECTIVE 2:

Continuous Random Variable

Students need to know how to find expected value (mean) and variance of a continuous random variable.

👉🏼 Refer Pg. 156 - 165

👉🏼 Watch Video V1W12 above (start from minute 46:07 until the end)

👉🏼 Redo Example 24 and Example 25, Pg. 156 - 159

👉🏼 Do Example 26, 27 and 28, Pg. 160 - 165
