John bought a second-hand car that was driven 16 kilometers (km) from sahibindenmiacaba.com. What is the probability that he will be able to drive this car at least for another 20 km before it has to be salvaged if life of a car (in km) is exponentially distributed with a rate parameter of 1/30? Answer uniformly distributed over (0, 140)? Answer
Porosity measurements for several reservoir formations have been accomplished. The results imply that probability density function of the measurements is constant at a value of o.25. The used measurements in this study have porosity values from 4% to 8%. Determine the proportion of the measurements thathave 7%-8% porosity.
Suppose we are modelling the spread of a disease using the SI model on a graph of degree 3. Let p be the probability that the disease spreads across an edge. Which of the following statement is true: If p=0.2, we get an epidemic that is likely to spread to many nodes. If p=0.8, we get an epidemic that is likely to die out fairly quickly. If p=0.3, the epidemic is likely to die out fairly quickly. None of these

A person arrives at the side of a single lane, one way street as a car passes by. Consider this time as time 0. There is no traffic lights and no pedestrian lanes in the nearby area. He stands there watching cars pass by. The number of cars to pass by within a period of time cane be modeled using a poison distribution. Suppose the cars pass by the person at a rate of 4.5 cars per minute. Assume that the cars pass by instantaneously. what is the probability that no cars pass by him within a 2 minute window b) if the person had to guess how many cars would pass by in the next five minutes, what number should he guess? Why? c) what is the distribution for the time until the first car passes by him(time is continuous). What is the expected time until the first car passes by him?
