Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given the PDF f(x) = 6x(1-x) for 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, calculate the expectation value E(X) and the variance Var(X).

💡 Hint: First find the integral for E(X), then use the result to find Var(X).

Question 2

If a continuous random variable has a CDF F(x) = x^3 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, find the PDF and verify it integrates to 1.

💡 Hint: Differentiate the CDF to find the PDF, then integrate.
