Probability Distributions for Continuous Variables Definition Let X be a continuous r.v. Then a probability distribution or probability density function (pdf) of X is a function f (x) such that for any two numbers a and b with a ≤ b, we have The probability that X is in the interval [a, b] can be calculated by integrating the pdf of the r.v. X.

The Mean and Variance of X For n = 1, the binomial distribution becomes the Bernoulli distribution. The mean value of a Bernoulli variable is = p, so the expected number of S’s on any single trial is p. Since a binomial experiment consists of n trials, intuition suggests that for X ~ Bin(n, p), E(X) = np, the product of the
