Get started for freeThe median of a continuous random variable having distribution function F is that value m such that F(m) = . That is, a random variable is just as likely to be larger than its median as it is to be smaller. Find the median of X if X is
(a) uniformly distributed over (a, b);
(b) normal with parameters μ,σ;
(c) exponential with rate λ.
A system consisting of one original unit plus a spare
can function for a random amount of time. If the density
ofis given (in units of months) by
what is the probability that the system functions for at least months?
Prove Theorem 7.1 when g(x) is a decreasing function.
Show that.
Hint: Show that
If percent of the population of a large community is in favor of a proposed rise in school taxes, approximate the probability that a random sample of people will contain
