Question 6.
If X is the random variable with distribution function F(x) given by,
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Maths Guide Chapter 11 Probability Distributions Ex 11.3 19
Find
(i) the probability density function f(x)
(ii) P(0.3 ≤ X ≤ 0.6)
Solution:
(i) Probability density function
Samacheer Kalvi 12th Maths Guide Chapter 11 Probability Distributions Ex 11.3 20

(ii) P(0.3 ≤ X ≤ 0.6)
P(a ≤ X ≤ b) = F(b) – F(a)
P(0.3 ≤ X ≤ 0.6) = F(0.6) – F(0.3)
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) [(0.6)² + (0.6)] – \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) [(0.3)² + (0.3)]
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (0.96 – 0.39)
= 0.285
