In the presence of a headwind of normalized intensity W, your speed on your bike is $V=g(W)=20-10 W^{1 / 3} \mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{hr}$. The wind intensity W is the continuous uniform (-1, 1) random variable. (Note: If W is negative, then the headwind is actually a tailwind.) Find the PDF $f_{V}(v)$.
