variance of independent random variables
Variance of the sum of independent random variables
We’ll start with a few definitions, Formally, the expected value of a discrete random variable X is defined by: The variance of X is defined in terms of the expected value as: From this we can also obtain:

Mean and Variance of Random Variables
Variances are added for both the sum and difference of two independent random variables because the variation in each variable contributes to the variation in each case, If the variables are not independent, then variability in one variable is related to variability in the other, For this reason, the variance of their sum or difference may not be calculated using the above formula,

week 9 1 Independence of random variables • Definition Random variables X and Y are independent if their joint distribution function factors into the product of their marginal distribution functions • Theorem Suppose X and Y are jointly continuous random variables,X and Y are independent if and only if given any two densities for X and Y their product is the joint density for the pair X,Y

For example, independence of the random variables implies that the events fX •5gand f5Y3 C7Y2 ¡2Y2 C11 ‚0gare independent, and that the events fX evengand f7 •Y •18gare independent, and so on, In-dependence of the random variables also implies independence of functions of those random variables, For example, sin,

Deriving the variance of the difference of random
what I want to do in this video is build up some tools in our toolkit for dealing with sums and differences of random variables so let’s say that we have two random variables x and y and they are completely independent they are independent independent random variables random variables and I’m just going to go over a little bit of notation here if we wanted to know the expected or if we talked
Independent random variables
Two random variables are independent if they convey no information about each other and, as a consequence, receiving information about one of the two does not change our assessment of the probability distribution of the other, This lecture provides a formal definition of independence and discusses how to verify whether two or more random variables are independent, Table of contents, …
