How to Calculate the Mean, or Expected Value, of a Continuous Random Variable

Sorry for using seconds as a unit!!! Should have used MINUTES 😊. Won’t change anything to the calculations though! Hope it helps!! (Just imagine I said minutes throughout!)

So insightful and helpful, I just subscribed. What if the pdf is ce^(x) how do I calculate that?

[@antoniobanderas5316]

So, for discrete they are not the same thing, but for continuous they are the same thing. Good to know.
