    fX(x) = 2(x + 1)/9 ,
    -1 < x < 2
    = 0,
    otherwise.
    Find the density function of Y = X2.
    2. Let X be continuous random variable with density given by

    0 x<1
    fX(x) = ,
    1<x 2
    (3-x)/2, 2 < x 3
    Find the density of Y = (X 3/2)2.
    3. Let X be a random variable with density function given by

    6. Let C denote the temperature in degree Celsius to which a computer will be
    subjected to in the field. Assume that C is uniformly distributed over the interval
    (15,21). Let F denote the field temperature in degrees Fahrenheit so that F =
    (9/5)C + 32. Find the density of F.
