Answer:
a) P ( 3 ≤X≤ 5 ) = 0.02619
b) E(X) = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- The CDF of a random variable X = { 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 , .... } is given as:
Find:
a.Calculate the probability that 3 ≤X≤ 5
b) Find the expected value of X, E(X), using the fact that. (Hint: You will have to evaluate an infinite sum, but that will be easy to do if you notice that
Solution:
- The CDF gives the probability of (X < x) for any value of x. So to compute the P ( 3 ≤X≤ 5 ) we will set the limits.

- The Expected Value can be determined by sum to infinity of CDF:
E(X) = Σ ( 1 - F(X) )

E(X) = Limit n->∞ [1 - 1 / ( n + 2 ) ]
E(X) = 1

36 and 48
a = b+12
a+b = 84
(b+12) + b =84
2b +12 = 84
2b = 72
b= 36
a = b + 12
a = 36 + 12
a = 48
Solve for y like the top equation:
2y = -4ax + 11
2y/2 = -4ax/2 + 11/2
y = -2ax + 11/2
Answer: It represents the area of the two circular sides ("lids")
Explanation:
Imagine you made a cylinder out of 3 pieces of paper. The cylinder can be decomposed into two circular shapes (radius r) and one rectangular piece with two side lengths: one is "h", the other has to be long enough to go around each of the disks, so it has to be 2*pi*r long.
So the term 2*pi*r*h is the area of the rectangular piece and pi*r^2 is the area of each of the "lids" Since there are two of those, the term 2*pi*r^2 represents the area of the bottom and top lids.
