You are eating a plateful of fried Shishito peppers. Most Shishito peppers are not very spicy, but about 1 in 10 are very spicy (for this question, assume it is exactly 1 in 10). You have a plate of 15 Shishito peppers. (This problem continues on the next page) Let X be the number of very spicy Shishito peppers on your plate. What is the distribution of X Write the pmf f(x) and describe its parameters What key assumptions about the peppers are needed to determine this distribution? What is the expected number of very spicy Shishito peppers that you will eat if you finish your plate? Interpret this value in a sentence or two.

Suppose that you enter a fantasy baseball league. Suppose that the 2021 team budget, say , is randomly drawn from a uniform distribution on the interval , where the unit is U.S. million dollars. In addition, suppose that after the value has been observed , the 2022 team budget, say , is randomly drawn from a uniform distribution on the interval . In other words, the 2022 budget is at most as large as the 2021 budget. a) For any given value of x(50<x<350), obtain E[Y|X=x] b) In view of part (a), obtain E[Y|X] c) Atlanta Braves won the 2021 World Series title. Their estimated 2022 payroll is about $130 million. Would your 2022 fantasy baseball budget be on average larger than their 2022 payroll? Explain briefly.

Suppose the inter-arrival time of people using the elevator can be modeled as X ~ Exp(1/6) (in minutes). What is the distribution of the number of people waiting at an elevator in two minutes (since the last elevator left)? Hint: Let Tn be the time when the n-th person arrives at the elevator, and let N be the number of people waiting at time t, then P(N>=n) if and only P(Tn =n) and P(N>=n+1). The difference of the two gives you P(N=n).
