NOTE: DONOT SOLVE ON EXCEL

a) Find the mean and standard deviation of the random variable whose probability density
function is given by f(x) where:
s2(1- x) 0<x<1
f(x) = {?(",*)
elsewhere
b) Most graduate schools of Management Science require applicants for admission to take an
entry examination. Scores on one such entry exams are normally distributed with a mean of
527 and a standard deviation of 112. What is the probability of an individual scoring between
250 and 500 in this entry exam?
