24. An insurance company offers its policyholders a num- ber of different premium payment options. For a ran- domly selected policyholder, let X = the number of months between successive payments. The cdf of X is as follows:

F(x)
=
0.00  :  x < 1
0.30  :  1≤x<3
0.40  :  3≤ x < 4
0.45  :  4≤ x <6
0.60  :  6≤ x < 12
1.00  :  12≤ x


a. What is the pmf of X?
b. Using just the cdf, compute P(3≤ X ≤6) and P(4≤ X).

a. p(2), that is, P(X = 2)
c. P(2≤ X ≤5)
b. P(X > 3)
d. P(2<x<5)
