How do you find the probability density function?
The probability density function of a random variable can be either chosen from a group of widely used probability density functions (e.g.: normal, uniform, exponential), based on theoretical arguments, or estimated from the data (if you are observing data generated by a specific density function). More material on density functions can be found by following the links below.
How do you get the median of a continuous random variable?
You integrate the probability distribution function to get the cumulative distribution function (cdf). Then find the value of the random variable for which cdf = 0.5.
What gives the probability of each random variable?
The marginal probability distribution function.
What is the difference between a probability mass function and a probability density function?
The probability mass function is used to characterize the distribution of discrete random variables, while the probability density function is used to characterize the distribution of absolutely continuous random variables.

How do you convert a beta probability density function to a beta frequency distribution?
