3. The amount of CPU time (measured in hours) an trading firm uses per week is a random variable H with the following pdf: Såk²(4 – h); 0sh < 4 f(h) 10; otherwise (a) Find the expected value and standard deviation of weekly CPU time. (b) The CPU time costs the firm $200 per hour. Find the expected value and standard deviation of the weekly cost for CPU time. (c) Would you expect the weekly cost to exceed $600 very often? Either calculate exact proba- bilities, or use Chebyshev's inequality (from HW5) to support your answer.

3. The amount of CPU time (measured in hours) an trading firm uses per week is a random variable
H with the following pdf:
S(h) = {ah?(4 – h); 0<h<4
0;
otherwise
(a) Find the expected value and standard deviation of weekly CPU time.
(b) The CPU time costs the firm $200 per hour. Find the expected value and standard deviation
of the weekly cost for CPU time.
(c) Would you expect the weekly cost to exceed $600 very often? Either calculate exact proba-
bilities, or use Chebyshev's inequality (from HW5) to support your answer.
