5. Suppose X ~Exp(A). (a) [5 pts] Show that E(X) 1/A. [Hint: You can directly use the definition and properties of a gamma function.] (b) [5 pts] Prove that P(x >t+ |xs) P(x > t) for s,t>0. [Hint: You can directly use the tail probability P(X > x) = e-k for x > 0.
4. [10 pts] Define T: P2 → Max2 by T(p)=Ip(0) p(-1) 10(1) p(2) (a) Show that T is a linear transformation. (b) What is the kernel of T? (e) Describe the range of T as the set of 2 x 2 matrices with the entries a,b.c,d satisfying certain conditions. Hint: Work on the practice problem §4.231 first. For finding the kernel, you may use the fact that if a polynomial p has degree at most 3 and p(0) = p(-1)...

2. (25 points) Sekora International Casino (SIC) is launching a new game making use of fair 6-sided dice . In phase 1, roll two 6-sided dice and compute the difference between the rolls. Call this difference . In phase 2, roll r dice, and add up the total of the rolls. This is the payout in dollars of the game. (with the numbers 1-6 on the sides). The game proceeds in two phases as follows: (a) (5 points) In the...
