Question

I greatly appreciate your help, thanks!

An insurance company offers its policyholders a number of different premium payment options. For a randomly selected policyholder, let X = the number of months between successive payments. The cdf of X is as
follows:
x < 1
0
0.30 1 ≤ x < 3
0.42 3 < x < 4
0.45 4 < x < 6
0.77
1
6 < x < 12
12 ≤ x
(a) What is the pmf of X?
F(x) =
X
p(x)
P(4 ≤ X)
1
(b) Using just the cdf, compute P(3 ≤ x ≤ 6) and P(4 ≤ X).
P(3 ≤ x ≤ 6) =
