A real number is to be selected at random from the interval [-5, 5]. There is a probability of 0.7 that the result will fall in the range [-5, -1], and all numbers from that interval have the same relative likelihood. Each number in the range (-1, 3) has twice the relative likelihood as each number in the range [3, 5]. a. Plot the PDF and CDF of the random variable described by this probability distribution. b. Find the probability...
