Show that the following functions are probability density functions for some value of k and determine k. Then, determine the mea

n ((a),(c),(e),(g)) and variance ((b),(d),(f),(h)) of X. Round your answers to three decimal places (e.g. 98.765).
(a),(b)f (x) = kx2 for 0 < x < 23
(c),(d)f (x) = k(1 + 2x) for 0 < x < 20
(e),(f)f (x) = ke-x for 0 < x
(g),(h)f (x) = k where k > 0 and 110 < x < 110 + k

Answer:

a) 17.5

b) 15.6

c) 13.3

d) 21.51

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is equal to:

f(x)=kx^2

where

\int\limits^y_0 {kx^{2} } \, =1

where y=23

Clearing k=0.00025

a) Ex=\int\limits^y_0 {xf(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^y_0 {x*0.00025x^{2} } \, dx =17.5

b)Vx=Ex^{2} -(Ex)^{2} =\int\limits^y_0 {x^{2}f(x) } \, dx-17.5^{2}  =\int\limits^y_0 {x^{2} *0.00025x^{2} } \, dx -17.5^{2} =321.82-306.25=15.6

c) The function is equal to:

f(x)=k(1+2x)

\int\limits^y_0 {k(1+2x)} \, =1

where y=20

k=0.0024

Ex=\int\limits^y_0 {xf(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^y_0 {x*0.0024(1+2x)} \, dx =13.3

d) Vx=Ex^{2} -(Ex)^{2} =\int\limits^y_0 {x^{2} f(x)} \, dx -13.3^{2}=\int\limits^y_0 {x^{2} *0.0024(1+2x)} \, dx-13.3^{2}   =198.4-176.89=21.51

Through (4,-4) ; perpendicular to 6y=x-12
BARSIC [14]

y = mx + b

m = slope and b = y-intercept


We can arrange 6y = x - 12 in the form of y = mx + b

                  6y = x - 12

                    y = 1/6(x) - 2

Slope of y = 1/6(x) - 2 is 1/6. Taking the negative reciprocal of the slope we get the slope for the perpendicular line.

Negative reciprocal of 1/6 is -6.

The equation for the perpendicular line is

                  y = -6x + b

To find b we can plug in the x and y values of (4,-4) into it since it passes through those coordinates

                -4 = -6(4) + b

                 b = -4 + 6(4)

                 b = -4 + 24

                 b = 20

So the equation for the perpendicular line is y = -6x + 20
