TypeInterquartile range calculation

5 The continuous random variable \(X\) has cumulative distribution function F given by $$F ( x ) = \begin{cases} 0 & x < 2 ,
\frac { ( x - 2 ) ^ { 2 } } { 12 } & 2 \leqslant x < 4 ,
1 - \frac { ( 8 - x ) ^ { 2 } } { 24 } & 4 \leqslant x \leqslant 8 ,
1 & x > 8 . \end{cases}$$
