The total area under the curve must equal 1, representing the fact that the probability of some outcome occurring within the entire range is certain. \[\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}f\left(x\right)dx=1\] ...
The random variable 2−3X is of the form aX+b, with a=−3 and b=2. Thus, Var(2−3X)=(−3)2Var(X)=9⋅2=18. Is it always true that $E[X^2]≥(E[X])^2$? We know ...
