Chapter 5: Q. 59 (page 351)

Use the following information to answer the next seven exercises. A distribution is given as X~Exp(0.75). Draw the distribution.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The distribution can be drawn as

Step by step solution

01

Definition of random distribution  theory 

As X~Exp(0.75)

m= 0.75

f(x) = 0.75e-0.75x

Now probability density isμ=1m=10.75=1.33

02

Theory  of random distribution  

For the maximum value of probability density x=0 and f(x) has been seen in y axis

f(0)=0.75e-0.75×0=0.75=m

The data that follow are the square footage (in 1,000 feet squared) of 28 homes

The sample mean = 2.50 and the sample standard deviation = 0.8302. The distribution can be written as X~U(1.5,4.5).

What is P(2<x<3)?

Use the following information to answer the next eight exercises. A distribution is given as X~U(0,12).

What is the probability density function?

Use the following information to answer the next eleven exercises. The age of cars in the staff parking lot of a suburban college is uniformly distributed from six months (0.5 years) to 9.5 years.

Find the third quartile of ages of cars in the lot. This means you will have to find the value such that 34or75%,of the cars are at most (less than or equal to) that age.

a. Sketch the graph, and shade the area of interest.

b. Find the value k such thatP(x<K)=0.75

c. The third quartile is _____
