Upper bound of random variable

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on deriving the upper and lower bounds of a random variable defined by the probability density function (pdf) p(f) = 1/(f^x). The variable 'f' represents the distribution of the random variable, while 'x' is a parameter that influences the behavior of the distribution. Participants emphasize the need for clarity regarding the definitions of 'f' and 'x' to facilitate accurate calculations of bounds.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of probability density functions (pdf)

Dears,

If a random variable is generated with the pdf of p(f) = 1/(f^x),
how can I derive the upper bound or lower bound of the random variable?

Thanks,

You need to be explicit as to what the variables mean. It appears that f is the variable related to the distribution of the random variable, while x is a parameter, but you should clarify.
