Question

b.)What is the probability that 3 pieces of debris are found in a 5 minute interval?

6 A remotely operated vehicle detects debris from a sunken craft at a rate of 12 pre The time to detect debris can be modeled using an exponential distribution. om a sunken craft at a rate of 72 pieces per hour. a) What is the probability that the time to detect the next piece of debris is minutes?

Answer 1

solution Here the vehichte detects debris at the of 72 per hour then x=72 here the time between two debres es exponential distubution. The cdf of exponential distubution is P (X2x) = 1 - é xa then P (less than 3 minutes) =P(223) meter =P(2.3 =1-e Since we are wrong 3 min so change to hours then 3 min = 23 00 hours -72(3) 60 7 =1-0.0273 - 10.9727
