Let a, b, and c be three strictly positive real numbers. Two sub-intervals of the interval (0, a + b + c) are chosen at random. One of sub-intervals of length a, and the other of length b. Find the probability that the sub-intervals do not overlap (that is, that their intersection is empty).
Let a, b, and c be three strictly positive real numbers. Two sub-intervals of the interval (0, a + b + c) are chosen at random. One of sub-intervals of length a, and the other of length b. Find the...
3. Suppose a value is chosen "at random" in the interval [0,6]. In other words, r is an observed value of a random variable X U(0,6). The random variable X divides the interval [0,6] into two subintervals, the lengths of which are X and 6- X respectively. Denote by Y min(X, 6-X), the length of the shorter one of the two intervals. Find e probability PY> ) for any given y. Then find both the cdf and the pdf of...
Let U, V be random numbers chosen independently from the interval [0,1]. Find the cumulative distribution and density for the random variables (a) Y =max(U,V). (b) Y =min(U,V).

about something, ask! Part .Do any eight (8) of 1-9 1. Two numbers are chosen at random in succession, with replacement, from the set 1, 2, 3, , 100J. What is the probability that the first one is larger than the second one? [15) 2. In a set of dominoes, each piece is marked with two numbers, one on each end. The pieces are symmetrical, so that the two numbers are unordered. (That is, you can't tell (1,4) and (4,1)...
4. Two numbers, and y, are selected at random from the unit interval [0, 1. Find the probability that each of the three line segements so formed have length > . For example, if 0.3 and y0.6, the three line segements are (0,0.3), (0.3,0.6) and (0.6, 1.0). All three of these line segments have length >. HINT: you can solve this problem geometrically. Draw a graph of and y, with x on the horizontal axis and y on the vertical...
Problem 1 (35 points): Two numbers are chosen at random and simultaneously from among the numbers 1 to 4 without replacement. Let A,产(1,2,3,41, be the event that the first number is . 1. Find the probability of the event B that the second number chosen is 3. 2. What is the probability that the first number is 1 given that the second number is 3?
3. Let a, b, and c be real numbers, with c +0. Show that the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 (a) has two (different) real solutions if 62 > 4ac, (b) has one real solution if 62 = 4ac, and (c) has two complex conjugate solutions if 62 < 4ac.
Choose independent two numbers B and C at random from the interval [0,2] with uniform density. Find the exact value of the probability that B^2 + C < 1
Let X be a uniform random variable over (0,1). Let a and b be two positive numbers and let Y = aX+b. (a) Determine the moment generating function of X. (b) Determine the moment generating function of Y. (c) Using the moment generating function of Y, show that Y is uniformly distributed over an interval(a, a+b).
Exercise 2.3 Exercise 2.3. Student interests. A student is chosen at random. Let A, B, C be the events that the student is an Aeronautics major, a Basketball player, or a Co-op student. The events are not disjoint; we are told P(A) = P(B) = P(C) = 0.38, and P(A n B)-P(A n C) = P( B n C) 0.12, and Find the probability that the student participates in at least one of these three programs, i.e., find P(AUBUC).
