Math Problem Statement
Solution
This exercise involves integrals, functional properties, and probability concepts. Let’s analyze and solve the problems one by one.
1. For and :
(a) Justify the existence of and :
The integrals and exist because:
- is a polynomial function, and both and are continuous over .
- The product of a polynomial and a continuous trigonometric function is integrable over the finite interval , hence the integrals converge.
(b) Prove the recurrence relations:
We can use integration by parts:
-
Let , . Then , . The boundary term evaluates to 0 (since ).
-
Similarly, for , let , . Then , : Again, the boundary term is zero (since ). Thus:
These two relations can be combined recursively to show:
(c) Compute and for :
Using the recurrence relations:
- .
- .
- Compute , and so on using the relations.
2. For on and elsewhere:
(a) Show is a probability density:
To prove is a probability density function, we need to check:
- for all .
- for , and .
- Hence, .
- The integral of over its support equals 1: Compute this integral explicitly to verify normalization.
(b) Find the cumulative distribution function :
The CDF is given by: Compute this integral step-by-step to express explicitly.
(c) Determine :
The expectation is: Simplify and evaluate.
(d) Calculate probabilities:
- .
- .
- : Use conditional probability:

Jn = ∫0^(2π) x^n cos(x) dx
In = ∫0^(2π) x^n sin(x) dx
Recurrence relations: Jn+1 = (n+1)Jn - (2π)^(n+1), Jn+1 = -(n+1)In
