Determine the risk of failure assuming the Extreme Value Distribution when the mean and standard deviation of the annual flood series are 410m3/s and 280 m3/s, respectively. 1ii. What is the probability that at least one flood of ARI 50y (T=50y) will occur during the 30 year design life of a flood control project? 1iii. Consider a small, temporary (3 year design life) flood mitigation dam designed to contain a 20 year flood event. What is the risk that it will be overtopped at least once in the design life.
The desired percentage of SiO2 in a certain type of aluminous cement is 5.5. To test whether the true average percentage is 5.5 for a particular production facility, 16 independently obtained samples are analyzed. Suppose that the percentage of SiO2 in a sample is normally distributed with ? = 0.32 and that x = 5.21. (Use ? = 0.05.) (a) Does this indicate conclusively that the true average percentage differs from 5.5?State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses. H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? ≠ 5.5H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? ≥ 5.5 H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? < 5.5H0: ? = 5.5Ha: ? > 5.5 Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.) z = P-value = State the conclusion in the problem context. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the true average percentage differs from the desired percentage.Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence…
Suppose X1, ..., Xn have been randomly sampled from a normal distribution with mean 0 and unknown variance sigma^2, and let U = c * i=1 -> n summation (X_ i)^2 , where c is a constant. Find the value of c that minimises the Mean Squared Error (MSE)
Dr. Castillejo feels that the maximum pulse rate (from 152 bpm to 196 bpm) during the run is a good predictor in explaining the oxygen consumption in the blood stream. He asserts that if the pulse rate at the end of the run increased, then the oxygen consumption will also increase, hence his/her heart is functioning well. Based on the R commanderoutput below, Give the expected oxygen consumption if the maximum pulse rate is 160 bpm
1) A producer of soft drinks was fairly certain that her brand had a 15% share of the soft drink market. In a market survey involving 3000 consumer of soft drinks, 250 expressed a preference for her brand. If the 15% figure is correct, find the probability of observing 400 or more consumers who prefer her brand of soft drink. [Hint: Use normal approximation and z-value must be rounded-off to 2 decimal places only
Records for the last 15 years have shown that the average rainfall in a certain region of the country, for the month of March, to be 1.20 inches, with s = 0.45 inches. A second region had an average rainfall of 1.35 inches, with s = 0.54. estimate the difference of the true average rainfalls in those two regions as a 95% C.I. with the assumption of normal populations and unequal variances.

The swing (difference between the maximum and minimum values) of S&P500 on any one day is distributed with pdf f1(x) = 2 20(1+x/20)3 , x > 0 if the market that day is “stable” or as f2(x) = 2 200(1+x/200)3 if the market is “volatile”. A market analyst assigns a 10% chance for Apr 29, 2013 being “volatile”. The analyst believes that the market state (stable/volatile) of a day persists the next day with probability 0.9 or switches to the other state with probability 0.1. The loss associated with flagging Apr 30, 2013 as “volatile” (flag V) or “stable” (flag S) are given below. Truth about Apr 30, 2013 ‘Volatile’ ‘Stable’ Flag V 0 1 S 10 0 Should the analyst flag Apr 30, 2013 as “stable” if a swing of 20 is recorded on Apr 29, 2013? Justify your answer.
