If X is an exponential random variables with rate 1, then its distribution function is given by
F(x) = 1 − e−x
Show that
x = − ln(1 − u).
If X is a continuous variable in the range 3 > X > 0 and its distribution function is as follows: F ( x ) = k : ( x3 + x2) find the probability density function?
suppose x has an exponential distribution with probability density function f(x) =2e^-2x, x>0. Then P(X>1)
