Homework Statement
Let f(x) = (1 + ux)/2 for -1<= x <= 1 and 0 otherwise . where -1<= u <= 1
a) show f is a density
Homework Equations
TO show
1. f(x) >= 0
2. intergeral f (from -infinity to infinity) = 1
The Attempt at a Solution
I have done 2. and proved that it is 1 by taking the intergeral of f.
However, how do u show f >= 0.
i have found the dervavtive of f to be u / 2 for -1<= x <= 1 and 0 otherwise.
I dun know where to go?
