1. Suppose a sample of three random variables X1, X2, X3 that are independent and identically distributed with a common uniform distribution over interval (0, 2). a) Find the density function of the median of the sample, i.c. fy, (y). b) Compute the mean of the median random variable. c) Compute the probability that the median is less than 1/3.
