Chapter Sums of Independent Random Variables: Transcript

1 Sums of Discrete Random Variables In this chapter we turn to the important question of determining the distribution of a sum of independent random variables in terms of the distributions of the individual constituents In this section we consider on. SUMS MEMBERS. ANDREA BUTTLE. Worked for SUMS since 2001. Have worked for 37 universities in that time from Solent to Cambridge. Reviewed timetabling at 19 universities. Wrote the SUMS good practice guide to teaching space management 2004. Riemann Sums. -Left, Right, Midpoint, Trapezoid. Summations. Definite Integration. We want to think about the region contained by a function, the x-axis, and two vertical lines x=a and x=b. . a. Expected Value. Airline overbooking. Pooling . blood . samples. Variance and Standard .
