Verify that p(x) = 3x - 4 is a probability density function on [1, oo)and calculate its mean value.
suppose that the probability density function of x is f(x)={3x^2, 0, 0<x<1 elsewhere. determine p(x<1/3), P(1/3 <=x<2/3), and P(x=>2/3)
Suppose the joint probability density of X and Y is fX,Y (x, y) = 3y 2 with 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ y ≤ 1 and zero everywhere else. 1. Compute E[X|Y = y]. 2. Compute E[X3 + X|X < .5]
