1 Random variables Some random eperimens may yield a sample space whose elemens evens are numbers, bu some do no or mahemaical purposes, i is desirable o have numbers associaed wih he oucomes A random variable is a funcion ha assigns a real number, ζ, o each oucome ζ in he sample space of a random eperimen The sample space S is he domain of he random variable and he se S of all values aken on by is he range of he random variable Noe ha S R, R is se of all real numbers
2 S ζ ζ real number line S Eample A random eperimen of ossing 3 fair coins Sample space S {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT} Le be he number of heads; hen S {,,, 3} eg 3 3 THH ; P[ ], P[ ], P[ ], P[ 3]
3 Equivalen evens Le A be he se of oucomes ζ in S ha leads o he se of values ζ in B A B eg A B { ζ S : ζ B} in he above coins ossing eample, {, 3} {HHT, HTH, THH, HHH} se of all preimages of elemens in B {, 3}
4 Since even B in S occurs whenever even A in S occurs, and vice versa Hence P[B] P[A] P[{ζ: ζ in B}] A and B are called equivalen evens wih respec o If we assign probabiliies in his manner, hen he probabiliies assigned o subses of he real line will saisfy he hree aioms of probabiliy P[B] for all B S P[S ] 3 If B and B are muually eclusive, hen P[B B ] P [B ] + P[B ] In he ossing coins eperimen, we observe 7 P[ ], P[ ], P[ ], P[ 3] Hence, P[ ] is a number whose value depends on, and so i is a funcion of
5 Eample Consider he random eperimen of ossing 3 coins S {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT} no of heads in he 3 coins, S {,,, 3} A {HTT, TTT} A {HHT, HTH, THH, TTT} {HTT, THT, TTH, TTT} A 3 A {, } se of all values aken by ζ, ζ A A {, } {, } se of all preimages of elemens in {, } {HTT, THT, TTH, TTT} A 3
6 Noe ha A 3 and {, } are equivalen evens since Noe ha A 3 S and {, } S Consider anoher random variable: P[ A3 ] P[ or ] Y number of heads number of ails hen Y can assume he values 3,, and 3 Now, Y {3, } {TTT, HTT, THT, TTH}, so {TTT, HTT, THT, TTH}, and {3, } are equivalen evens
7 Eample A poin is seleced a random from inside he uni circle cenered a he origin Le Y be he random variable represening he disance of he poin from he origin a S Y {y: y } range of Y y cener seleced poin b The equivalen even in he sample space S for he even {Y y} in S Y is ha he seleced poin falls inside he region cenered a he origin and wih radius y c P[Y y] y probabiliy of selecing a poin inside he uni circle, and whose disance is less han or equal o y πy y π

11 Hence, he cdf of is coninuous from he righ Define he uni sep funcion: 7 u <, u + u + u + u 3 The jump a is given by P[ ], and similarly, for he jump a, and 3
12 6 P[a < b] b a since { a} {a < b} { b}, and { a} and {a < b} are muually eclusive so a + P[a < b] b Suppose we ake a b h, h >, P[b h < b] b b h As h +, P[ b] b b The probabiliy ha akes on he special value b is given by he magniude of he jump of he cdf a b h If he cdf is coninuous a b, hen he even { b} has probabiliy zero essenially h If he cdf is coninuous a a and b, hen P[a < < b], P[a < b], P[a < b], P[a b] have he same value 7 P[ > ]
