Question 28 (Textile Engineering & Fibre Science)

Let ܺ X be a continuous type random variable with probability density function f(x)=\begin{cases} \frac{1}{4} & 1 \leq x\leq 3 \\ 0 & otherwise \end{cases}. When P(X \leq x) = 0.75, the value of x is equal to __1.99:2.01__.

[Show Answer]

Write Here

f(x)=\begin{cases} \frac{1}{4} & 1 \leq x\leq 3 \\ 0 & otherwise \end{cases}. When P(X \leq x) = 0.75
X is a random variable
\int_{-1}^{x} f(x) dx=0.75
\int_{-1}^{x} \frac{1}{4} dx=0.75
\frac{1}{4} \int_{-1}^{x} 1 dx=0.75
\frac{1}{4} [x]_{-1}^{x}=0.75
[x+1]=0.75 x 4
x+1=3
x=2 (Ans)
