5. Suppose the distance traveled in an ride-share trip in a certain area can be modeled by a random variable that has the probability density function f(x) = 1/4 for 3 ≤ x ≤7. For the same area, the dynamic pricing algorithm of the ride-share app charges X2 - 4 dollars when X miles are traveled. (a) What is the expected distance traveled in a ride? (1 point) (b) What is the expected cost of a ride? (2 points) (c) What is the probability that a ride costs more than 12 dollars? (2 points)
