关于数学统计方面pdf和cdf的问题(题目是英文的)

1. The random variable, X has the following probability mass function.p(x) = c/x(x + 1) (x = 1, 2, 3, . . .)(i) Find the value of the constant c.(ii) Find the cumulative distribution function of X and sketch both theprobability mass function and the cumulative distribution function.NOTE: Think carefully about the values of x for which you need to definethe distribution function.(iii) Calculate P(X ≥ 50) and P(X ≥ 50|X ≥ 40).2.A continuous random variable X has the following probability density functionfX(x) =0, for x < 01/3, for 0 ≤ x < α4/3, for α ≤ x < 2α1/3, for 2α ≤ x < 3α0, x ≥ 3α.(a) Find the value of the constant α.(b) Write down the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) of X.(c) Sketch a rough plot, indicating points of intersection, of the probabilitydensity function fX(x).(d) Hence, or otherwise, calculate E(X).

这个是你的作业吧。我给你个提示,就不给你说答案了。

cdf是cumulative distribution function(F(x)),所以可以理解为是在一定区间里所有pdf(f(x))相加之后的结果。所以他们相加的结果是1。所以直接integrate p(x),就是cdf。F(x) = integral(f(x))=integral(p(x))= 1。然后c就求出来了。作图就比较简单了,一定记住cdf是cumulative,所以是每个p(x)相加,就是y轴的值。第三问就是P(X ≥ 50) is the integration of pdf from 50 to infinity ,你也可以用1-p(x<50)来算。另外一个算出p(X ≥ 40),然后相除就可以了。

第二问我帮你把cdf的图画出来了,alpha也算出来了,至于cdf的式子还有其他的还是你自己算吧,图已经出来了,其实很简单了。
