A bus arrives every 11 minutes to a stop. The waiting time for a particular individual is assumed to be a random variable with uniform continuous distribution. What is the probability that the individual waits for more than 6 minutes? Answer using 4 decimals.
Lab 6.1 The Mean of a Discrete Random Variable In this lab, you will discuss how to calculate the mean for a discrete random variable. At Rushmore Community College, there have been complaints about how long it takes to get food from the college cafeteria. In response, a study was conducted to record the total amount of time students had to wait to get their food. The following table gives the total times (rounded to the nearest 5 minutes) to...

Part 3: The Uniform Distribution Suppose that you need to take a bus that comes every 30 minutes. Assume that the amount of time you have to wait for this bus has a uniform distribution between 0 and 30 minutes. The probability density curve for this distribution is given below. 1) Is waiting time a discrete or continuous random variable? 2) What is the area of this entire rectangle? 3) What numbers are represented by a, b and c (note:...
4. Arrivals of passengers at a bus stop form a Poisson process X(t) with rate ? = 2 per unit time. Assume that a bus departed at timet 0 leaving no customers behind. Let T denote the arrival time of the next bus. Then, the number of passengers present when it arrives is X(T) Suppose that the bus arrival time T is independent of the Poisson process and that T has the uniform probability density function 1,for 0t1, 0 ,elsewhere...
5. Let X be a random variable with PDF 30 20 f(x)- 20 < x < 40 0 otherwise. (a) Find P(X 20) and P(X >20) (b) Suppose that buses go past my stop at exactly twenty minutes past the hour and forty every hour. I arrive at my stop at a completely random time during the day. What is the expected value of the length of time I'll have to wait for a bus?
