2. Arrival times. Imagine you live in ancient times, before telephones. In each of the following, you plan to meet a friend, and your arrival times are independent random variables. For each situation, compute the probability you end up meeting each other. (a) Each of you arrives at your meeting spot at an independent uniformly distributed time between 8 and 9 pm, and wait for 20 minutes. (b) Each of you arrives at an independent exponentially distributed time (with rate1/hour)...

Suppose that the amount of service(ordering a coffee and getting it done) time at a KU driving- through coffee shop is exponentially distributed with an expected value of 10 minutes. You arrive at the driving-through line while one customer is being served and one other customer is waiting in the line. The staff of the coffee shop informs you that the customer has already ordered a Cafe Latte and waited for 5 minutes. What is the probability that the customer...

On a trip to the Badlands, you and a friend decide to go repelling on a high and blind cliff. Your friend quickly drops his rope which was one end tied to a tree near the edge of the cliff, clips the carabiner attached to his harness onto the rope and begins his decent. You caution him saying "wait, wait. let me verify we have enough rope", he laughs and continues. You instead drop several stones one at a time,...

What should you do? #2 I have several employees who are chronically late but not late enough...
