ON SOME INEQUALITIES FOR THE EXPECTATION AND VARIANCE
Abstract
Some elementary inequalities for the expectation and variance of a continuous random variable whose probability density function is de ned on a nite interval are obtained by using an identity due to P. Cerone for the Chebyshev functional and some standard results from the theory of inequali- ties. Thus some mistakes in the literatures are corrected.
