continuous random variable

Let $X$ is a continuous random variable denoting the temperature measured. The range of temperature is $[0,100]$ degree Celsius and let the probability density function of $X$ be $...

A random variable $$X$$ has probability density function $$f(x)$$ as given below: $$$\,\,f\left( x \right) = \left\{ {\matrix{ {a + bx} & {for\,\,0 < x < 1} \cr 0 & {otherwise} \cr...

Lifetime of an electric bulb is a random variable with density $$f\left( x \right) = k{x^2},$$ where $$x$$ is measured in years. If the minimum and maximum lifetimes of bulb are $$...

Let $$X$$ be a random variable with probability density function $$f\left( x \right) = \left\{ {\matrix{ {0.2} & {for\,\left| x \right| \le 1} \cr {0.1} & {for\,1 < \left| x \right...

A continuous random variable $$X$$ has a probability density function $$f\left( x \right) = {e^{ - x}},0 < x < \infty .$$ Then $$P\left\{ {X > 1} \right\}$$ is
