Essay

The cdf of checkout duration X for a book on a 2-hour reserve at a college library is given by: F(x)={0x<0x240x<212xF ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { l l } 0 & x < 0 \\\frac { x ^ { 2 } } { 4 } & 0 \leq x < 2 \\1 & 2 \leq x\end{array} \right. Use this cdf to compute the following:
a. P(X1)P ( X \leq 1 )
b. P(.5X1)P ( .5 \leq X \leq 1 )
c. P(X>5)P ( X > 5 )
d. The median checkout duration μˉ[H int: solve .5=F(μˉ)]\bar { \mu } [ H \text { int: solve } .5 = F ( \bar { \mu } ) ]
e. F(x) to obtain the density function f(x)F ^ { \prime } ( x ) \text { to obtain the density function } f ( x )
