TypeMixed continuous-discrete problems

6. The continuous random variable \(X\) has the cumulative distribution function shown below. $$\mathrm { F } ( x ) = \left\{ \begin{array} { c c } 0 & x < 0
\frac { 1 } { 62 } \left( 4 x ^ { 3 } + 6 x ^ { 2 } + 3 x \right) & 0 \leq x \leq 2
1 & x > 2 \end{array} \right.$$ The discrete random variable \(Y\) has the probability distribution shown below.
\(y\)271319
\(\mathrm { P } ( Y = y )\)0.50.10.10.3
The random variables \(X\) and \(Y\) are independent.
Find the exact value of \(\mathrm { E } \left( X ^ { 3 } + Y \right)\).
