Exercise

[math] \newcommand{\NA}{{\rm NA}} \newcommand{\mat}[1]{{\bf#1}} \newcommand{\exref}[1]{\ref{##1}} \newcommand{\secstoprocess}{\all} \newcommand{\NA}{{\rm NA}} \newcommand{\mathds}{\mathbb}[/math]

Let [math]X[/math] be a continuous random variable with values

unformly distributed over the interval [math][0,20][/math].

  • Find the mean and variance of [math]X[/math].
  • Calculate [math]P(|X - 10| \geq 2)[/math], [math]P(|X - 10| \geq 5)[/math], [math]P(|X - 10| \geq 9)[/math], and [math]P(|X - 10| \geq 20)[/math] exactly. How do your answers compare with those of Exercise Exercise? How good is Chebyshev's Inequality in this case?
