2.3. The power output P in MW from a wind farm is a function P(w) = 3w² of the wind speed w in m/s. Suppose that the wind speed is uniformly distributed on the interval [5, 15]. %3D (a) What is the probability that the wind speed is at least 10m/? (b) What is the probability that the power output is at least 300 MW? (c) What is the expected power output E[P] (d) Suppose now that the wind turbines adjust for high wind speeds to reduce loading. This means that the wind farm has a maximum power output of 300 MW, so: 3w? w 10 What is the expected power output E[P] of the wind farm?
Many people believe that the daily change in price of a company's stock in the stock market is a random variable with mean 0 and variance o² during the middle 2 months between 2 earning report dates when there is not much news released. That is, if Yn represents the closing price of the stock on the nth trading day of that period, then Yn = Yn-1+Xn, for 1 ≤ n ≤ 60, where X₁, X2,..., X60 are independent and identically distributed random variables with mean 0 and variance o². Suppose that the stock price at the beginning of the 2-month period is 100. If o = 2, what is the approximate probability that the stock's closing price on the 30th trading day will exceed 110, i.e., what is P(Y30 > 110)

The frog wants to send a gift to the princess. He needs to jump a total distance of 10 meters to reach her. Suppose that each time, the frog independently generates a random variate from the normal distribution N(1,1). If the generated variate is below zero, the frog will jump away from the princess. If the generated variate is above zero, the frog will jump towards the princess. The distance that the frog covers in each jump is the absolute value of the variate. Calculate the probability that after two jumps, the frog has still not reached the princess.
A certain process for producing an industrial chemical yields a product containing two predominant types of impurities. For a certain volume of sample from this process, let X1 denote the proportion of impurities in the sample and let X2 denote the proportion of type I impurity among all impurities found. Suppose the joint distribution of X1 and X2, after investigation of many such samples, can be adequately modeled by the following function: (see picture) a. Calculate the probability that X1 is less than 0.5 and that X2 is between 0.4 and 0.7. b. Show that these random variables are independent.
In an area having sandy soil, 40 small trees of a certain type were planted, and another 40 trees were planted in an area having clay soil. Let X = the number of trees planted in sandy soil that survive 1 year and Y = the number of trees planted in clay soil that survive 1 year. If the probability that a tree planted in sandy soil will survive 1 year is 0.5 and the probability of 1-year survival in clay soil is 0.4, compute an approximation to P(-4 < X – Y < 4) (do not bother with the continuity correction). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) In USE SALT .148
Q3. For simplicity assume only two states of the world S = subjective states and ignores the actual distribution of probabilities. Formally, the value of an act f is {S1, s2}. Suppose a consumer evaluates the AA acts as an average of the best possible payoffs across th V(f) = 0.5 (max{z: f(s1)(z) > 0} + max{z : f(s2)(z) > 0}), where f(s)(z) is a probability of prize z in state s and max{z : f(s)(z) > 0}is the greatest prize possible (with some positive probability) in state s. Consider the following example of how such consumer evaluates acts f and g below: 0.2 0.8 1.0 0.5 0.5 0.3 0.7 00 01 90 30 20 50 The highest payoff of act f in s1 is 100 and the highest payoff of act f in s2 is 90, so the value of act f will be V(f) = 0.5(100 + 90) = 95. At the same time, the highest value of act g in s1 is 30 and the highest value of act g in s2 is 50, so the value of act g is V(g) = 0.5(30 + 50) = 40. Note that this is only an example, and in what follows you have to consider all possible acts.…
