2. The random variable X has probability density function f given by f(x) 0 otherwise. (a) Is X continuous or discrete? Explain. (b) Calculate E(X). (c) Calculate Var(2X 9).
3. Let X be a continuous random variable with probability density function ax2 + bx f(0) = -{ { for 0 < x <1 otherwise 0 where a and b are constants. If E(X) = 0.75, find a, b, and Var(X). 4. Show that an exponential random variable is memoryless. That is, if X is exponential with parameter > 0, then P(X > s+t | X > s) = P(X > t) for s,t> 0 Hint: see example 5.1 in...
