Problem

The diagram shows the graph of the probability density function ff of a random variable XX. Between x=0x=0 and x=ax=a the graph consists of a straight line through OO with gradient kk, where kk and aa are positive constants. Elsewhere f(x)=0f(x)=0.

It is given that the median of XX is 2\sqrt{2}.

(a) Find the value of kk.

(2)

(b) Find the value of E(X)\mathrm{E}(X).

题目中文翻译

图中给出随机变量 XX 的概率密度函数 ff 的图像。在 x=0x=0 与 x=ax=a 之间,图像是过 OO、斜率为 kk 的直线段,其中 kk 和 aa 是正的常数。其余各处 f(x)=0f(x)=0。

已知 XX 的中位数为 2\sqrt{2}。

(a) 求 kk 的值。

(2)

(b) 求 E(X)\mathrm{E}(X) 的值。

Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.

You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.

Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.

请回答所有题目。适当时应使用计算器。必须清楚展示所有必要的计算过程;仅给出计算器答案而没有过程,不予评分。除非题目另有精度要求,非精确数值答案保留 3 位有效数字,以度为单位的角度保留 1 位小数。

解答

(a)

解法一

思路

展开

用中位数左侧的概率为一半,积分求直线密度的斜率。

答题过程

Since the median is 2\sqrt2 and f(x)=kxf(x)=kx,

∫02kx dx= 12,[kx22]02= 12,k= 12.\begin{align*} \int_0^{\sqrt2}kx\,\mathrm{d}x=&\,\frac12,\\[4mm] \bigg[\frac{kx^2}{2}\bigg]_0^{\sqrt2}=&\,\frac12,\\[4mm] k=&\,\boxed{\frac12}. \end{align*}

先归一化求支持区间端点,再积分求期望。

答题过程

With k=1/2k=1/2, the density must satisfy

∫0ax2 dx= 1,a24= 1.\begin{align*} \int_0^a\frac x2\,\mathrm{d}x=&\,1,\\[4mm] \frac{a^2}{4}=&\,1. \end{align*}

Since a>0a>0, a=2a=2. Hence

E(X)= ∫02x(x2) dx= [x36]02= 43.\begin{align*} \mathrm E(X)=&\,\int_0^2x\bigg(\frac x2\bigg)\,\mathrm{d}x\\[4mm] =&\,\bigg[\frac{x^3}{6}\bigg]_0^2\\[4mm] =&\,\boxed{\frac43}. \end{align*}
