Suppose that the random variable B has the standard normal density. What is the conditional probability density function of the sum of the two roots of the quadratic equation x2 + 2Bx + 1 = 0 given that the two roots are real? KINDLY REQUEST YOU TO PROVIDE ME WITH COMPLETE SOLUTION
For a certain psychiatric clinic suppose that the random variable X represents the total time (in minutes) that a typical patient spends in this clinic during a typical visit (where this total time is the sum of the waiting time and the treatment time), and that the random variable Y represents the waiting time (in minutes) that a typical patient spends in the waiting room before starting treatment with a psychiatrist. Further, suppose that X and Y can be assumed to follow the bivariate density function fXY(x,y)=λ2e−λx, 0<y<x, where λ > 0 is a known parameter value. (a) Find the marginal density fX(x) for the total amount of time spent at the clinic. (b) Find the conditional density for waiting time, given the total time. (c) Find P (Y > 20 | X = x), the probability a patient waits more than 20 minutes if their total clinic visit is x minutes. (Hint: you will need to consider two cases, if x < 20 and if x ≥ 20.)
If the random variable T is the time to failure of a commercial product and the values of its probability den-sity and distribution function at time t are f(t) and F(t), then its failure rate at time t is given by f(t)1 − F(t). Thus, thefailure rate at time t is the probability density of failure attime t given that failure does not occur prior to time t.(a) Show that if T has an exponential distribution, thefailure rate is constant. (b) Show that if T has a Weibull distribution (see Exer-cise 23), the failure rate is given by αβt β−1.
