Compare the Markov inequality and the exact probability for the event {x > c}, where x is the random variable as a function of the constant c. With that, answer for the following cases: a)x is a uniform random variable in the interval [0, b]. b)x is an exponential random variable of parameter a. c)x is a Rayleigh random variable.
