Problem 5. Two points are selected independently and randomly on a line of length 15 inches...
(1 point) Two points are selected randomly on a line of length 10 so as to be on opposite sides of the midpoint of the line. In other words, the two points X and Y are independent random variables such that X is uniformly distributed over [0,5) and Y is uniformly distributed over (5, 10]. Find the probability that the distance between the two points is greater than 2. answer:
(1 point) Two points are selected randomly on a line of length 16 so as to be on opposite sides of the midpoint of the line. In other words, the two points X and Y are independent random variables such that X is uniformly distriuted over [0,8) and Y is uniformly distributed over (8,16] Find the probability that the distance between the two points is greater than 6. P(|X – Y| > 6) =
Two points are selected randomly on a line of length 1, as X and Y as shown in the figure. Therefore X is the smaller of the two points and Y is the larger of the two points. Y 1 (i) Find the joint probability density function of X and Y. (ii) What is the expected length E(Y – X)?
Two points are chosen randomly in a segment line of length . Prove that the probability that the distance between such points to be less than is , where is a defined distance before doing the experiment and . Any help will be appreciated, thanks
Please be clear and show all steps. Please specify how to get f(x) and f(y) and also specify how to get the limits of the integration. i will give it a LIKE. Thank you. Two points are selected randomly on a line of length L so as to be on opposite sides of the mid- point of the line. [In other words, the two points X and Y are independent random variables such that X is uniformly distributed over (0,...
(1 point) Two points along a straight stick of length 49 cm are randomly selected. The stick is then broken at those two points. Find the probability that all of the resulting pieces have lenght at least 7.5 cm. probability =
(1 point) Two points along a straight stick of length 38 cm are randomly selected. The stick is then broken at those two points. Find the probability that all of the resulting pieces have lenght at least 4.5 cm. probability =
5. Forearm lengths of men, measured from the elbow to the middle fingertip, are normally distributed with a mean 18.8 inches and a standard deviation 1.1 inches. If I man is randomly selected, what is the probability that his forearm length is below 17 inches? 27) What are the parameters? a. Find the z-score, and construct the standard normal distribution density curve, then b. shade your seeking area. Find the probability. c. 5. Forearm lengths of men, measured from the...
2. (15 points) Suppose the time between arrivals of university shuttles in a randomly selected station has an exponential distribution with the mean of 15 minutes. a. (7 points) What is the probability that one randomly chosen student waits more than 20 minutes for the bus in that specific station? (8 points) What is the probability that one randomly chosen student waits between 10 and 15 minutes for the bus in that specific station? b.
On a line segment AB of length l, two points C and D are placed at random and independently. What is the probability that C is closer to D than to A? PS I understand that the marginal pdfs are f = 1/l, but how can I find the joint pdf?
