Question

For the given question solve the following:

(a) Construct the cumulative distribution function.
(b) What is the expected value, variance, and standard deviation of this random variable?

A random variable \( X \) takes values between 4 and 6 with a probability density function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{x \ln(1.5)} \) for \( 4 \leq x \leq 6 \) and \( f(x) = 0 \) elsewhere.
