hazard analysis is comprised of source modeling, wave attenuation, and local ground amplification. Deterministic Probabilistic Probabilistic assessment of seismic hazard involves determining either the probability of exceeding a specified ground motion, or the ground motion that has a specified probability of being exceeded over a particular time period. Elements/Exposure at Risk Vulnerability assessment should be done for a building that represents a building stock. This requires a standard systematic

still be accepted based on the Boltzmann probability factor [103-104]: 2.21 where is the Boltzmann constant and denotes the current temperature. By examining this relation, we should note two things: the probability is proportional to temperature, as the solid cools, the probability gets smaller; and inversely proportional to , as the change in energy is larger the probability of accepting the changes gets smaller
b) When would you use an exponential distribution? ________________________ Answer: the exponential distribution is used to model data with a continual failure rate. Also, it could be used to when questions needed to be answered, such as how much time will elapse before the earthquake occurs in a given region. How long do we need to wait before a customer enters a shop, and so on and so forth? (Wikipedia, n.d.) c) What is a binomial distribution (include an APA citation)?_______________________

What is the probability that it takes at least two sessions to gain the patient’s trust? Answer: The probability that is takes at least two sessions to gain the patient’s trust is 0.83, because Probability x≥2=f2+f3=26+36=0.8333=0.83 Chapter 5 – Section 3. Question 17 a. Let x be a random variable indicating the number of times a student takes the SAT. Show the probability distribution for this random variable. Answer: The probability distribution: Number of Times (x) | Number
A coin is tossed four times. The probability is ¼ or 0.25 that all four tosses will result in a head face up. Answer Correct Answer: False A firm offers routine physical examinations as part of a health service program for its employees. The exams showed that 8% of the employees needed corrective shoes, 15% needed major dental work and 3% needed both corrective shoes and major dental work. What is the probability that an employee selected at random will need either corrective shoes
success/yes/true/one (with probabilityp) or failure/no/false/zero (with probability q = 1 − p). A single success/failure experiment is also called a Bernoulli trial or Bernoulli experiment and a sequence of outcomes is called a Bernoulli process; for a single trial, i.e., n = 1, the binomial distribution is a Bernoulli distribution. The binomial distribution is the basis for the popular binomial test of statistical significance. Binomial distributions are useful to model events that arise in a binomial experiment
EC/315 Midterm Examination Directions: This test is open-book and open notes and covers the content from weeks 1 through week 4 of EC/315. The test will be typed and submitted in the Dropbox marked Midterm Exam. The midterm is due the last day of Week 4. PROBLEM 1 (Weight 40 points). NBC TV news, in a segment on the price of gasoline, reported last evening that the mean price nationwide is $1.50 per gallon for self-serve regular unleaded. A random sample of 35 stations in the Milwaukee
controlled by the micro grid aggregator which is treated as a nonprofit agent. In these studies, the objective was either to minimize the operating costs of the entire micro grid or to maintain a balance between the demand and local generation. To the best of our knowledge, the variability and uncertainty impacts of excessive renewable energy generation on the unit commitment decisions and real-time dispatch of a micro grid with controllable DGs in the presence of ESS, demand response (DR) and interruption
