Explanation Definition used: Median: It is the value of the random variable and which divides the area under the graph of the probability density function into 2 equal parts. If m satisfy the condition P ( X ≤ m ) = 1 2 , then m is the median. Calculation: The probability density function is f ( x ) = { 3 x − 3 x 5 if 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 0 Otherwise . Initially consider the case when x < 0 . Use the definition of the cumulative distribution function to obtain the value of F ( x ) . F ( x ) = P ( X < 0 ) = ∫ − ∞ x 0 d t [ ∵ f ( x ) = 0 for x < 0 ] = 0 Hence, the cumulative distribution function for x < 0 is F ( x ) = 0 . In the same manner obtain the cumulative distribution function for x ≥ 0 as, F ( x ) = P ( X ≤ x ) = ∫ − ∞ x f ( t ) d t = ∫ − ∞ 0 0 d t + ∫ 0 x ( 3 t − 3 t 5 ) d t On further simplification, F ( x ) = ∫ 0 x ( 3 t − 3 t 5 ) d t = ( 3 t 2 2 − t 6 2 ) 0 x = 3 x 2 2 − x 6 2 So, the cumulative distribution function for x ≥ 0 is F ( x ) = 3 x 2 2 − x 6 2

Continuous Probability Distributions

Probability distributions are of two types, which are continuous probability distributions and discrete probability distributions. A continuous probability distribution contains an infinite number of values. For example, if time is infinite: you could co…
