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
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of the sector minus the area of the triangle
step 1
Find the area of the circle
the area of the circle is equal to
we have
substitute
step 2
Find the area of the sector
we know that
The area of the circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees
so
by proportion find out the area of a sector by a central angle of 72 degrees
step 3
Find the area of triangle
The area of the triangle is equal to
step 4
Find the area of the shaded region
Subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the sector
