SOA Exam P Sample Question 131

Study guide: Exam P-1

An insurer offers a travelers insurance policy. Losses under the policy are uniformly distributed on the interval [0, 5]. The insurer reimburses a policyholder for a loss up to a maximum of 4.

Determine the cumulative distribution function, F, of the benefit that the insurer pays a policyholder who experiences exactly one loss under the policy.

  • A) F(x) = \begin{cases} 0, & x < 0 \\ 0.20x, & 0 \le x < 4 \\ 1, & x \ge 4 \end{cases}
  • B) F(x) = \begin{cases} 0, & x < 0 \\ 0.20x, & 0 \le x < 5 \\ 1, & x \ge 5 \end{cases}
  • C) F(x) = \begin{cases} 0, & x < 0 \\ 0.25x, & 0 \le x < 4 \\ 1, & x \ge 4 \end{cases}
  • D) F(x) = \begin{cases} 0, & x < 0 \\ 0.25x, & 0 \le x < 5 \\ 1, & x \ge 5 \end{cases}
  • E) F(x) = \begin{cases} 0, & x < 1 \\ 0.25x, & 1 \le x < 5 \\ 1, & x \ge 5 \end{cases}
