          Continuous Distributions
Two different kinds of “infinity” Aleph null – countable infinity “start at 0 and just keep counting” Aleph one – all the numbers that are missing in the gaps between integers!
CDF is also used to find probability: CDF F(X) = P(X≤a) = Example: time it takes to eat breakfast in the morning has a PDF of:
Percentiles: In general to find percentiles set percentile to CDF and solve for x Median (50th percentile) 
Things to remember: PDF CDF you want to integrate CDF PDF you want to differentiate To find probabilities using PDF – you must integrate To Find probabilities using CDF – plug into function To find E(X) or Var(X) use PDF To find Percentiles use CDF Directory: file -> view view -> Western Europe after wwii view -> Author study: paul fleischman view -> Qpa1 7ela study Guide view -> Arctic Oil/Gas Neg view -> November 1970 Approximately 150,000-500,000 deaths Bhola Cyclone Bangladesh view -> Grade Level: 6 Unit of Study: Caribbean glce view -> Citation: Duffield, Katy view -> Table of Contents Lesson # view -> Chinese Wind Energy Disad Download 9.9 Kb.
