Two geysers that are near to each other are labelled as Geyser
A and Geyser B. The time between eruptions for a given geyser
follows an exponential distribution. The eruption times of the
two geysers are independent of one another. The mean
amount of time between eruptions of Geyser A is 39 minutes,
and the mean amount of time between eruptions of Geyser B
is 66 minutes. Given that exactly one of the geysers erupts
within the next 49 minutes, determine the probability that it
will be Geyser A.

- QUESTION 3. STATISTICS. An analyst in the real estate business is interested in the relationship between the cost of the monthly rent of an apartment and the size of an apartment, in big cities. She gathers data for apartment buildings in 12 cities in 12 different states. In each city, she gets the numbers for at least 5 different buildings and at least 40 apartments in each building. She reaches the following conclusion: the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 1-bedroom apartment, and the rental cost of a 3-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment. Based on the paragraph, what is the minimum number of apartments she collected data on? Do you think her sample was large enough to be statistically valid? Based on the paragraph, are there any apartments or apartment buildings that she would have excluded from her study? Do you see any bias in how she selected apartments for her study?

- A car rental agency only rents cars on a daily basis. Rented cars can be returned to any of the agency's three locations; A, B, or C. The figure to the right shows the percentages of cars returned to each of the locations based on where they were picked up. Assume that all cars are rented each day and that initially 20% of the cars are at location A, 40% at location B, and 40% at location C. (a) Set up the stochastic matrix that displays these transitions. A 80% Enter your answer in each of the answer boxes. 20% (b) Estimate the percentage of cars at location A after two days. After two days, approximately % of the cars are at location A. (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.) (c) In the long run, what fraction of cars will be at location B?
