Question

Determine whether the given function is a probability density function on the specified interval. 
A)no 
B)yes

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In order to be a probability density function, the given function must satisfy two conditions:
1. It must be non-negative for all values of the variable in the specified interval.
2. Its integral over the entire interval must equal 1.
The given function satisfies both these conditions and hence is a probability density function on the specified interval.
