Consider a square with sides of length 2 as in the diagram below. An experiment consists of choosing a point at random from the square and noting its x-coordinate. If X is the x-coordinate of the point chosen, find the cumulative distribution function of X. [Recall F(x) = Pr(0 ≤ X ≤ x).] Enter just an unlabeled polynomial in x in standard form.
