Question 5 (1 point) Suppose $X$ is a discrete random variable which only takes on positive integer values. For the cumulative distribution function associated to $X$ the following values are known: $F(17) = 0.39$ $F(25) = 0.45$ $F(32) = 0.48$ $F(38)$ Assuming that $Pr[32 < X \le 58] = 0.14$, determine the value of $k$. $k = 0.65$ $k = 0.62$ $k = 0.06$ $k = 0.59$ $k = 0.38$

14$. This can be written as $F(58) - F(32) = 0.14$. We are given that $F(32) = 0.48$. Therefore, $F(58) - 0.48 = 0.14$, which implies $F(58) = 0.14 + 0.48 = 0.62$. Show more…
