How do you defi ne variance in terms of Mathematical expectation?

उत्तर
The variance of X is defined by
Var(X) = `sum[x - "E"("x")]^2 "p"(x)`
If X is discrete random variable with probability mass function p(x).
Var(X) = `int_-oo^oo [x - "E"("X")]^2 "f"_x (x) "d"x`
If X is continuous random variable with probability density function fx (x).

Four buses carrying 160 students from the same school arrive at a football stadium. The buses carry, respectively, 42, 36, 34, and 48 students. One of the students is randomly selected. Let X denote the number of students that were on the bus carrying the randomly selected student. One of the 4 bus drivers is also randomly selected. Let Y denote the number of students on that bus. Then E(X) and E(Y) respectively are
