I actually do have a graph of the density function. http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/8127/graphbo.png But if F(0) = 1/2, when solving the integral above and doing F(x) - F(0), wouldn't that make it (x^2)/2 + x - (1/2)? What I meant was F(0) = 0 in context of the integral above, then adding the...

Thanks, that helps clarify a bit. I solved the integral you posted and got the correct answer, but tried to solve the other 2 and got an answer different than what the professor gave. To get the F for 0<x\leq-1, I used this integral: \int_{-\infty}^{x}f(t)\,dt = \int_{-\infty}^{x} 1 - t\,dt =...
