Question seems weird. Expectation of X given X>3

samedi 8 novembre 2014

f(x) = 8/(x^3) x>2



the question seems simple enough

find E[X given X>3]



but with conditional probability it would be:



E(X intersect X>3)/E(X>3)



but X intersect X>3 would just be X>3



so it becomes E(X>3)/E(X>3) which would just equal 1



I think I must be going about this problem all wrong but I don't know how to solve this, any help?



O wait, would it just be 1 minus the probability of being between 2 and 3? Or is that not right either?
