The time between successive clicks on an ad has a density function fX(x) = 2e^(−2x), x ≥ 0 and f = 0 otherwise. Find the standard deviation σX.
A college professor never finishes his lecture before the end of the hour and always finishes his lectures within 2 min after the hour. Let X = the time that elapses between the end of the hour and the end of the lecture and suppose the pdf of X is
f(x)= {kx2O < x < 2}
0 otherwise
a. Find the value of k and draw the corresponding density curve.[ Hint:
Total area under the graph of f (x) is 1.]
b. What is the probability that the lecture ends within 1min of the end of the hour?
c. What is the probability that the lecture continues beyond the hour for between 60 and 90 sec?
d. What is the probability that the lecture continues for at least 90 sec beyond the end of the hour?
Suppose X is exponentially distributed with mean 2. Let Y = eX. What is the density function of Y?

When I checked the answer, it was 4x+6y all over 4x+3. Those two answers are the same, but my question is--is there some protocol as far as what is proper form to express an answer in when dealing with density functions?arrow_forwardFind the mean and variance of the gamma distributionusing integration to obtain E(X) and E(X2).[Hint: Express the integrand in terms of a gammadensity.]arrow_forward
- 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.)arrow_forwardLet X denote 0.025 × the ambient air temperature (˚C) and let Y denote the time (min) that it takes for a diesel engine to warm up. Assume that (X, Y) has joint probability density function f(x,y) = 1.6x (1 − x)(6 + 5x − 4y), for 0 < x < 1, 0 < y < 0.5. While you cannot guess the value of the correlation from the regression curve for X or Y, do they suggest whether it likely is positive or negative?arrow_forwardSuppose the amount of time (x) to complete an exam is uniform between 30 and 60 minutes. A) Draw the density curve for for the unknown height (h) B) What is the probability that the exam takes between 30 and 35 minutes or 55 and 60 minutes? Enter your answer as a fraction.arrow_forward
