Let $X$ denote checkout time duration with pdf given in Exercise 1 , 

\[
f(x)=\begin{cases}
       .5x, & 0\leqslant x\leqslant 2, \\
       0, & \mbox{otherwise}.
     \end{cases}
\]

  • (a) Compute $E(X)$.
  • (b) Compute $V(X)$ and $\sigma_X$.
  • (c) If the borrower is charged an amount $h(X)=X^2$ when checkout duration is $X$, compute the expected charge $E[h(X)]$.
