### Problem Statement

The probability density function (pdf) for the continuous random variable \( X \) is \( f(x) = \frac{x}{6} \) when \( x \) is between 2 and 4. What is the cumulative density function (CDF) \( F(x) \)?

### Multiple Choice Options

1. \( F(x) = \frac{x^2}{12} \) for \( x \) from 2 to 4.

2. \( F(x) = \frac{x^2}{12} - \frac{4}{12} \) for \( x \) from 2 to 4.

3. \( F(x) = \frac{x^2}{12} - 2 \) for \( x \) from 2 to 4.

4. \( F(x) = 1 \) for \( x \) from 2 to 4.
