QUESTION:

The level of impurity (in percent) in the product of a certain chemical process is a random variable with probability density function

\(\left\{\begin{array}{cl}

\frac{3}{64} x^{2}(4-x) & 0<x<4 \\

0 & \text { otherwise }

\end{array}\right.

\)

a. What is the probability that the impurity level is greater than 3%?

b. What is the probability that the impurity level is between 2% and 3%?

c. Find the mean impurity level.

d. Find the variance of the impurity levels.

e. Find the cumulative distribution function of the impurity level
