Suppose that W is a discrete random variable and its cumulative distribution function is given in the image below:

 

  •  find the prob distribution function of W
  • Calculate E(W)
  • Determine:

- P(W=3) =

- P(2 <= W <= 5)

show steps and work

F(w) =
0
5/32
16/32
24/32
29/32
1
W<0
0 ≤W<2
2 ≤W< 4
4 ≤W< 6
6≤W <8
8≤W
Transcribed Image Text:F(w) = 0 5/32 16/32 24/32 29/32 1 W<0 0 ≤W<2 2 ≤W< 4 4 ≤W< 6 6≤W <8 8≤W
Expert Solution
Step 1

 E(W)=3.375

P(W=3) =0
