From The Perspective of Measure
A technically complete derivation of the result is available using arguments in measure theory, in which the probability space of a transformed random variable g(X) is related to that of the original random variable X. The steps here involve defining a pushforward measure for the transformed space, and the result is then an example of a change of variables formula.
