PROPERTIES:-
Discrete random veriable
Let X be a r.v. with cdf If changes values only in jumps (at most a
countable number of them) and is constant between jumps-that is, is a
staircase function, then X is called a discrete random variable.
A. Mean :- The mean (or expected value of a rev. X, denoted by or E(X), is defined by
= X : discrete; X: continuous
C. Standard deviation:- The standard deviation of a r.v. X, denoted by is the positive square
root of Var(X). We can obtain the following relation:
Var(X) = E() –
APPLICATIONS
Certainly, random variables and probability distributions have a wide range of applications across various fields. Here
are some examples of their applications:
1.Finance and Economics:
1. Modeling stock prices and returns.
2. Analyzing risk and uncertainty in investment portfolios.
3. Estimating the probability of default in credit risk analysis.
2.Engineering:
1. Predicting the lifespan of components and systems.
2. Analyzing the reliability of electronic circuits.
3. Designing experiments and quality control processes.
3.Physics:
1. Modeling the behavior of particles in quantum mechanics.
2. Describing the distribution of energy levels in a physical system.
3. Analyzing radioactive decay processes.
4.Biology and Medicine:
1. Modeling the distribution of genetic traits.
2. Analyzing the distribution of disease outbreaks.
3. Estimating the effectiveness of medical treatments.
