X is a continuous uniform (-a,a) random variable. Find P[ | X | ] ≤ Var[ X ]
Added by Christian L.
Step 1
So, we want to find the probability that the absolute value of X is less than or equal to (a^2)/3. However, since X is a continuous uniform random variable, the absolute value of X can only take values between 0 and a. Show more…
