Problem 4: A company produces dyes for the food industry by mixing cyan, magenta, andyellow dyes. Let X and Y, respectively represent the fraction of cyan and magenta dye in oneorder of dye from one customer. The joint density of X and Y is given byf(x,y) = {24xy0 ≤ y ≤ 1, x + y ≤ 1,0 ≤ x ≤ 1,elsewhere.a) Find the probability density function of the random variable Z = X + Y.b) Use the density function of Z to find the probability that the fraction of yellow dye in anorder is at most 0.1.

QUESTION 2 Delta Airlines quotes a flight time of 4 hours, 3 minutes for a particular flight. Suppose we believe that actual flight times are uniformly distributed between 4 hours and 4 hours, 12 minutes. (a) Show the graph of the probability density function for flight time. The graph has a shaded area. The horizontal axis is labeled: x with the title: Flight Time in Minutes and has tickmarks labeled: 234, 240, 246, 252. The vertical axis is labeled: f(x), and has tickmarks labeled: 1/12, 1/6, 1/4. The shaded area is the region bounded by the horizontal axis and the following line segments. A 1/12 unit long vertical line segment begins at 240 on the horizontal axis. A 1/12 unit long vertical line segment begins at 252 on the horizontal axis.
