for question 9ci, if we write g(x)=1/3|f(x+1)| does it still count as correct?

No, you had to use the actual function of f(x) and make the adjustments to it. Your final answer shouldn't be left with those transformations and "f(x)". If the function is given (which it was), it must be used to get full marks for the question. :)

For 9 ci
I left my answer as a hybrid function, would that be ok?

I believe you would still get the marks as long as the two rules are correct and a domain was included for each. :)

q8 should be 2+ 4/pi  right?

check the negative sign on your solutions.

I'll do it without simplifying any negatives from the start and showing more working than needed.

Also the expected value of wouldn't be more than 2 since from the density function.

It can't be 2+4/pi because it's asking for the mean which surely has to be within the domain of [0,2], also 2-4/pi approximates to just under 1 because 4>pi which makes sense as the mean of a cos distribution if you look at the graph, the first quarter of a cos graph, the mean should be a little to the left of the middle value of 1 because that's where most of the area is
