First, you find the total of both sides.

42 + 67 = 109

Next, you divide the Total by either of the sides, but since we're looking for the percentage of males, it'd be better to do this.

42/109 = 0.39

Multiply it by 100 to change it into percentage form.

0.39 x 100 = 39%

There your answer is 39%

Let f(x) = cxe−x2 if x ≥ 0 and f(x) = 0 if x < 0.

sergij07 [2.7K]

(a) If f(x) is to be a proper density function, then its integral over the given support must evaulate to 1:

$\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(x)\,\mathrm dx = \int_0^\infty cxe^{-x^2}\,\mathrm dx=1$

For the integral, substitute u = x ² and du = 2x dx. Then as x → 0, u → 0; as x → ∞, u → ∞:

$\displaystyle\frac12\int_0^\infty ce^{-u}\,\mathrm du=\frac c2\left(\lim_{u\to\infty}(-e^{-u})-(-1)\right)=1$

which reduces to

c / 2 (0 + 1) = 1 → c = 2

(b) Find the probability P(1 < X < 3) by integrating the density function over [1, 3] (I'll omit the steps because it's the same process as in (a)):

$\displaystyle\int_1^3 2xe^{-x^2}\,\mathrm dx = \boxed{\frac{e^8-1}{e^9}} \approx 0.3678$
