Question 16 - (10 marks) a) Find k so that the function given by P(x) - (²-1). = kx k x = 1,2,3,4 is a probability function. Then, complete the following distribution function: - ?0 < x < 1 1
Question (a) We shall simplify the function P(x)first and then proceed ------------ using the identity that x2-1 = (x-1)(x+1) ------------ On taking k as a common factor out --------------------------------------Canceliing x-1 from b
