Continuous random variables can take any value within a range. Unlike discrete variables, they include fractional and decimal values. These variables are often modeled using probability distributions.

The total area under the curve must equal 1, representing the fact that the probability of some outcome occurring within the entire range is certain. \[\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}f\left(x\right)dx=1\] ...
