Content Derived Distributions Covariance and Correlation Conditional Expectation and Variance Revisited Transforms Sum of a Random Number of Independent Random Variables
more advanced topics We introduce methods that are useful in: deriving the distribution of a function of one or multiple random variables; 口 dealing with the sum of independent random variables,including the case where the number of random variables is itself random; quantifying the degree of dependence between two random variables

Derived distributions Consider functions Y=g(X)of a continuous random variable X. Question:Given the PDF of X,how to calculate the PDF of Y? oAlso called a derived distribution The principal method for doing so is the following two-step approach
Derived distributions Consider functions 𝑌 = 𝑔(𝑋) of a continuous random variable 𝑋. Question: Given the PDF of 𝑋, how to calculate the PDF of 𝑌? Also called a derived distribution. The principal method for doing so is the following two-step approach
