A random variable $X$ has the density function

$f(x)= \begin{Bmatrix} c(x+\sqrt{x}) & x\epsilon [0,1]\\ 0& otherwise \end{Bmatrix}.$

(b) Compute $\text{E(1/X)}$.

Roll a die $n$ times and let $M$ be the number of times you roll $6$. Assume that $n$ is large. (b) Write down an approximation, in terms on $n$ and $\phi$, of the probability that $M$ differs from its expectation by less than $10$ %
