Annie and Alvie have agreed to meet between 5:00 p.m.and 6:00 p.m. for dinner at a local health-food restaurant.Let X 5 Annie’s arrival time and Y 5 Alvie’s arrivaltime. Suppose X and Y are independent with each uniformlydistributed on the interval [5, 6].a. What is the joint pdf of X and Y?b. What is the probability that they both arrive between5:15 and 5:45?c. If the first one to arrive will wait only 10 min beforeleaving to eat elsewhere, what is the probability thatthey have dinner at the health-food restaurant? [Hint:The event of interest is A5{(x, y): u x2y u # 1y6}.]

Two geysers that are near to each other are labelled as Geyser A and Geyser B. The time between eruptions for a given geyser follows an exponential distribution. The eruption times of the two geysers are independent of one another. The mean amount of time between eruptions of Geyser A is 39 minutes, and the mean amount of time between eruptions of Geyser B is 66 minutes. Given that exactly one of the geysers erupts within the next 49 minutes, determine the probability that it will be Geyser A. O 0.6654 0.7850 O 0.7252 O 0.6953 O 0.7551

A certain disease has an incidence rate of 0.2%. The false negative rate is 8%, and the false positive rate is 3%. Calculate the probability that a person who tests positive actually has the disease. 0.0848 Note: The incidence rate is the probability that a random person gets the disease. The false negative rate is the probability of getting a negative result given that the person has the disease. The false positive rate is the probability of getting a positive result given that the person does not have the disease.

Let X be the total amount saved in dollars at the cash register. The pdf of X is given by: Value of X 20 28 40 50 58 70 probability 0.36 0.21 0.24 0.1225 0.0175 0.03 .0175 0.0025 Before I make the purchase, you would place my chance of saving $20 at 24%. Suppose you approach me after I pay for my items and ask: "Did you save any money?" If I answer "no", then you know I didn't save $20 and thus the chance of saving $20 changes from the unconditional chance 24% to the conditional chance 0%. However, if I answer "yes" my chance of saving $20 would get higher. What would be the conditional chance of saving $20 if you knew I got a discount? Mathematically, we seek: P(X = 20|X > 0 ). Even though it looks weird, it is just a conditional probability. Find it. P(X = 20|X > 0) = P(X = 20 and X > 0) / P(X > 0) = Hint: P(X = 20 and X > 0) be read off the table by identifying possible values where the event (X = 20 and X > 0) is true, don't use the multiplication rule.
