Suppose that the time in minutes that a person has to wait at a certain station for a train is found to be a random phenomenon with a probability function specified by the distribution function F(x)=\(0,\quad for\quad x\le 0\\ \frac { x }{ 2 } ,\quad for\quad 0\le x<1\\ \frac { 1 }{ 2 } ,\quad for\quad 1\le x<2\\ \frac { x }{ 4 } ,\quad \ for\quad 2\le x<4\\ 1,\quad for\quad x\ge 4\)
(a) Is the distribution function continuous? If so, give its probability density function?
(b) What is the probability that a person will have to wait
(i) more than 3 minutes,
(ii) less than 3 minutes and
(iii) between 1 and 3 minutes?
