also it says for PDF f(x)=cx for 0<x<3 and f(x)=0 elsewhere and then its asks the above question

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

it's a PDF if the area under the curve from 0 to 3 is 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do you find that out

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

take the integral of cx then evaluate at the endpoints to get the area in terms of x and c afterwards set it equal to 1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

then solve for c

ok thank you

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

np

in terms of symbols, you are setting this up |dw:1367447001415:dw| and solving for c
