To determine

To indicate that the statement “If p(t) is a density function waiting times in minutes at a bank teller, then 1015p(x)dx is the fraction of the people waiting in line for that teller who wait between 10 and 15 minutes.” is true or false.

In each of Problems, assume that the variable under consideration has a density curve. Note that the answers required here may be only approximately correct. The percentage of all possible observations of a variable that lie between 25 and 50 equals the area under its density curve between _______ and _______, expressed as a percentage.
Question 1 : Suppose that the probability density function (p.d.f.) of the life (in weeks) of a certain part is f(x) = 3 x 2 (400)3 , 0 ≤ x < 400. (a) Compute the probability the a certain part will fail in less than 200 weeks. (b) Compute the mean lifetime of a part and the standard deviation of the lifetime of a part. (c) To decrease the probability in part (a), four independent parts are placed in parallel. So all must fail, if the system fails. Let Y = max{X1, X2, X3, X4} denote the lifetime of such a system, where Xi denotes the lifetime of the ith component. Show that fY (y) = 12 y 11 (400)12 , y > 0. Hint : First construct FY (y) = P(Y ≤ y), by noticing that {Y ≤ y} = {X1 ≤ y} ∩ {X2 ≤ y} ∩ {X3 ≤ y} ∩ {X4 ≤ y}. (d) Determine P(Y ≤ 200) and compare it to the answer in part (a)
