Question
Consider the graph of $f$ shown. What is the probability that the graph of $y=f(x)+c$ intersects the $x$ -axis when $c$ is a randomly chosen integer from 1 to 6? Explain.(Graph Cant Copy)
Step 1
If $c$ is positive, the graph shifts up; if $c$ is negative, the graph shifts down. Show more…

Suppose the random variable X has the cdf F(x) = 0, for x < -1 (x+2)/4, for -1 ≤ x < 1 1, for 1 ≤ x Write an R function to sketch the graph of F(x). Use your graph to obtain the probabilities: (a) P(-1/2 < X ≤ 1/2); (b) P(X = 0); (c) P(X = 1); (d) P(2 < X ≤ 3).
