Question

Expectation of a constant of a continuous random variable

Answer 1

Answer:

Mean of a continuous random variable

When introducing the topic of random variables, we noted that the two types — discrete and continuous — require different approaches.

In the module Discrete probability distributions , the definition of the mean for a discrete random variable is given as follows: The mean μX of a discrete random variable X with probability function pX(x) is

μX=E(X)=∑xpX(x),
