उत्तर

Since, f is the p.d.f. of X,

` int_(-∞)^∞ f (x) dx` = 1

∴ ` int_(-∞)^(-2) f (x) dx` +` int_(-2)^(2) f (x) dx` + `int_2^∞f(x) dx = 1`

= 0 + ` int_(-2)^(2) k (4 -x^2) dx + 0 = 1` 

∴ k ` int_(-2)^2  (4 -x^2) dx + 0 = 1`

∴ k` [ 4x - x^3/3]_-2^2` = 1

∴ k `[(8-8/3)-(-8+8/3)]`= 1

∴ k`(16/3+16/3)` = 1

∴ k`(32/3)` = 1

∴ k = `3/32`

P (–0·5 < x or x > 0·5)

= P (x < –0·5) + P (x > – 0·5) 

= `int_(-∞)^-0.5f (x) dx + int_(0.5)^∞f (x) dx`

=` int_(-∞)^-2 f (x) dx + int_(-2)^-0.5 f (x) dx +int_(0.5)^2f (x) dx +  int_(2)^∞ f (x) dx`

= 0+` int_(-2)^(-1/2) k (4 -x^2) dx+ int_(1/2)^2 k (4 -x^2) dx` + 0

= ` k int_(-2)^(-1/2) (4 -x^2) dx+ k int_(1/2)^2 (4 -x^2) dx`

= `3/32[4x-(x^3)/3]_-2^(-1/2)+3/32[4x-(x^3)/3]_(1/2)^2`           .......[∵ k =`3/32`]

= `3/32[(-2+1/24)-(-8+8/3)] + 3/32[(8-8/3)-(2-1/24)]`

= `3/32((-47)/24+16/3)+ 3/32(16/3-47/24)`

= `3/32((-47)/24+16/3+16/3-47/24)`

= `3/32((-47+128+128 -47)/24)`

= `3/32(162/24) = 81/128`

= 0.6328

Alternative Method :

P  (x< – 0·5  or x > 0·5)

= 1 -P( - 0.5 ≤ x ≤ 0.5)

= 1 -` int_(-0.5)^0.5 f (x) dx `

= 1 - ` int_(-1/2)^(1/2) k (4 - x^2) dx`

= 1 - k ` int_(-1/2)^(1/2) (4 - x^2) dx`

= `1-3/32[4x-x^3/3]_(-1/2)^(1/2)`                    ......[∵ k = `3/32`]

= `1 - 3/32[(2-1/24)-(-2+1/24)]`

= `1 - 3/32(2-1/24+2-1/24)`

= `1 - 3/32(4-1/12)`

= `1 - 3/32 xx 47/12`

= `1 - 47/128`

= `(128-47)/128`

= `81/128`

= 0.6328
