TopicContinuous Probability Distributions and Random Variables
TypeFind expectation E(X)

5 The continuous random variable \(X\) has probability density function $$f ( x ) = \begin{cases} \frac { 1 } { 6 } e ^ { \frac { x } { 3 } } & 0 \leq x \leq \ln 27
0 & \text { otherwise } \end{cases}$$ Show that the mean of \(X\) is \(\frac { 3 } { 2 } ( \ln 27 - 2 )\)
