Linear Transformations of Random Variables If X is a random variable and if a and b are any constants, then a + bX is a linear transformation of X. It scales X by b and shifts it by a. A linear transformation of X is another random variable; we often denote it by Z.

What is the transformation of normal random variables?
g(x) = (x α )1/β . If the transform g is not one-to-one then special care is necessary to find the density of Y = g(X). For example if we take g(x) = x2, then g−1(y) = √ y. Fy(y) = PY ≤ y = PX2 ≤ y = P− √ y ≤ X ≤ √ y = FX( √ y) − FX(− √ y).
What is the linear transformation equation?
A linear transformation (or a linear map) is a function T:Rn→Rm that satisfies the following properties: T(x+y)=T(x)+T(y)
How do you find the linear transformation in statistics?
The transformation is performed by first multiplying every score value by the multiplicative component (b) and then adding the additive component (a) to it. For example, the following set of data is linearly transformed with the transformation X'i = 20 + 3*Xi, where a = 20 and b = 3.
