please answer all 3 a The length of time (in years) until a particular radioactive particle decays is a random variablet with probability density function defined by f(t) = 8 e - 8t fort in [0, 0o). Find the mean of the distribution, the standard deviation of the distribution, and the probability that the random variable is between the mean and 1 standard deviation above the mean. b The length (in centimeters) of the leaf of a certain plant is...
5 The length (in centimeters) of the leaf of a certain plant is a continuous random variable with probability density function defined by f(x) = for x in 14 [3, 5.8]. Find the mean of the distribution, the standard deviation of the distribution, and the probability that the random variable is between the mean and 1 standard deviation above the mean. The mean of the distribution is cm. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) cm. The standard deviation of...

Suppose the time between buses at a particular stop is a positively skewed random variable with an average of 59 minutes and standard deviation of 6 minutes. Suppose the time between buses at this stop is measured for a randomly selected week, resulting in a random sample of n = 38 times. The average of this sample, X , is a random variable that comes from a specific probability distribution. (a)Which of the following is true about the distribution of...
Let the random variable T be the time until some event occurs (e.g. time until an atom decays, time until next rainfall, etc). Suppose it’s a continuous random variable supported on [0, ∞). The hazard rate for T is defined as h(t) = f(t) 1 − F(t) , where f and F are the density and CDF for the distribution of T. On an intuitive level, this is the chance that the event will occur in the very near future,...
Will rate! Guppose the time between buses at a particular stop is a positively skewed random varlable with an average of 50 minutes and standard deviation of 5 minutes. Suppose the time between buses at this stop is measured for a randomly selected week, resulting in a random sample of t= 35 t mes. The average of this tampi x, is a randon an able that comes from a specific probability distribution. (ajwhich of the following is true about the...
