QUESTION:

A distribution sometimes used to model the largest item in a sample is the extreme value distribution. This distribution has cumulative distribution function

        

\(F(x)=e^{-e^{-x}}\)

Let X be a random variable with this distributor


a. Find \(P(X \leq 0)\).


b. Find \(P(X>\ln 2)\).

c. Find the median of X.

Equation Transcription:

Text Transcription:

F(x) = e^-e^-x

P(X less than or equal to 0)

P(X greater than ln 2)
