Random Variable
A numerical variable whose value depends on the outcome of a chance experiment is called random variable.
A random variable associates a numerical value with each outcome of a chance experiment.
We use a capital letter like X, to denote a random value.
The probability distribution of a random variable Xgives the probability associated with each possible X value .
A random variable can be discrete or continuous.

Discrete and Continuous
Random Variables
A discrete variable is a variable whose values are obtained by counting. Example
Number of students present
Number of heads when flipping three coins
Student’s grade level
A continuous variable is a variable whose values are obtained by measuring. Example
Height of students in class
Time it takes to get to school
Distance traveled between classes

Continuous Random Variable
A continuous random variable X takes all values in a given interval of numbers.
The probability distribution of a continuous random variable is shown by a density curve.
The probability that X is between an interval of numbers is the area under the density curve between the endpoints.
The probability that a continuous random variable X is exactly equal to a number is zero.

Example – Page 401, #7.6
F) What important fact about continuous random variables
does comparing your answer to (c) and (d).
Continuous distribution assign probabilities 0 to every
individual outcome. In this case, the probabilities in (c) and
(d) are the same because the events differ by 2 individual
values, 0.3 and 0.5, each of which has a probability 0.

Example – Uniform Density Curve
A certain probability density function is made up of two straight line
Segments. The first segment begins at the origin and goes to point
(1,1). The second segment goes from (1,1) to the point (1.50, 1).

An SRS of 400 American adult is asked, “What do you think the most
serious problem facing our schools?” Suppose that in fact 40% of all
adults would answer “violence” if asked this question. The proportion
of the sample who answered “violence” will vary in repeated sampling. In
fact, we can assign probabilities to values of using the normal density
curve with mean 0.4 and standard deviation 0.023. Use the density curve

insured against earthquake damage. Four homeowners are
selected at random; let X denote the number among the four
who have earthquake insurance.

Mean of a Random Variable
Is the long-run average outcome of a
experiment.
As the number of trials of the experiment
increases, the average result of the experiment
gets closer to the mean of the random variable.
Use the notation μX for the mean.
The mean of a random variable is also called
the expected mean of X.

The Tri-State Pick 3 lottery game offers a choice of several bets. You
choose a three-digit number. The lottery commission announces
the winning three-digit number, chosen at random, at the end of each
day. The “box” pays $83.33 if the number you choose has the same
digits as the winning number, in any order. Find the expected payoff
for $1 bet on the box. (Assume that you chose a number having
three different digits.)
If my number is abc, then of the (10)3 = 1000 three-digit
numbers, there are six – abc, acb, bac, bca, cab, cba – for
Which you will win the box.

Example – Page 417, #7.32
A). A gambler knows that red and black are equally likely to occur on
each pin of a roulette wheel. He observes five consecutive reds
and bets heavily on red at the next spin. Asked why, he says that
“red is hot” and that the run of reds is likely to continue. Explain
to the gambler what is wrong with this reasoning.
The wheel is not affected by it past outcomes – it has
no memory; outcomes are independent. So on any
one spin, black and red remain equally likely

B). After hearing you explain why red and black remain equally probable
after five reds on the roulette wheel, the gambler moves to poker game.
He is dealt five straight red cards. he remembers what you said
and assume that the next card dealt in the same hand it equally likely
to red or black. Is the gambler right or wrong? Why?
Removing a card changes the composition of the
remaining deck, so successive draws are not independent.
If you hold 5 red cards, the deck now contains
5 fewer reds cards, so your chance of another red
decreases.
