2. Suppose X is a continuous random variable with the probability density function (i.e., pdf) given by f(x) - 3x2; 0< x < 1, - 0; otherwise Find the cumulative distribution function (i.e., cdf) of Y = X3 first and then use it to find the pdf of Y, E(Y) and V(Y)
please show work and explain for my understanding. Suppose that the continuous random variable X has pdf given by: x <1 0.16x 15 x 33 f(x)= 0.06 3<x55 [124 x>5 • Find the corresponding cdf for X: You must determine the arbitrary constants. x <1 1<x3 Ex(x)={ 3< x <5 x>5 • Use the cdf to find P(2.4 <x< 10) = • Use the cdf to determine the following percentiles: the 50th percentile (median) the 80th percentile the 90th percentile
