claims are uniformly distributed over the range(0,10).if four claims are selected at random, determine the probability that the second largest claim is less than 6
Solution :
Given that,
a = 0
b = 10
P(x < c) = (c - a) / (b - a)
P(x < 6) = (6 - 0) / (10 - 0)
= 6 / 10 = 0.6
Probability = 0.6

Coin with random bias. Let P be a random variable distributed uniformly over [0, 1]. A coin with (random) bias P (i.e., Pr[H] = P) is flipped three times. Assume that the value of P does not change during the sequence of tosses. a. What is the probability that all three flips are heads? b. Find the probability that the second flip is heads given that the first flip is heads. c. Is the second flip independent of the first...

An automobile insurer has found that repair claims are Normally distributed with a mean of $890 and a standard deviation of $850. (a) Find the probability that a single claim, chosen at random, will be less than $840. ANSWER: (b) Now suppose that the next 100 claims can be regarded as a random sample from the long-run claims process. Find the probability that the average x¯ of the 100 claims is smaller than $840. ANSWER: (c) If a sample larger...
