Question 1

What is the primary purpose of a probability density function?

  • To provide a list of probabilities
  • To describe densities over intervals
  • To show discrete outcomes

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what a PDF represents graphically.

Question 2

The cumulative distribution function ranges from:

  • -∞ to +∞
  • 0 to 1
  • 0 to ∞

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how probabilities are represented in total.

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).

πŸ’‘ 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.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Differentiate the CDF to find the PDF, then integrate.
