Let X be a continuous random variable with p.d.f. f(x) = kx(1-x), 0b).. find k and determine anumber b such that `P(X le b) ` = `P (X ge b)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`kint_0^1(x(1-x))dx=1`
`k[int_0^1xdx-int_0^1x^2dx]=1`
`k[x^2/2--x^3/3]_0^1`
`k[1/2-1/3]=1`
`k=6`
`P(0,b)=P(b,1)`
`6int_0^b(x-x^2)dx=1/2`
`6[x^2/2-x^3/3]_0^b=1/2`
