What are the required conditions for a function f(x) to be a valid probability density function (pdf) of a continuous random variable X?
- 1f(x) ≥ 0 for all x ∈ R and ∫-∞∞ f(x) dx = 0
- 2f(x) ≤ 0 for all x ∈ R and ∫-∞∞ f(x) dx = 1
- 3f(x) ≥ 0 for all x ∈ R and ∫-∞∞ f(x) dx = 1✓
- 4f(x) ≤ 0 for all x ∈ R and ∫-∞∞ f(x) dx = 0
Correct answer
f(x) ≥ 0 for all x ∈ R and ∫-∞∞ f(x) dx = 1
