Seventy-eight independent messages are sent from an electronic transmission center. Messages are processed sequentially, one after another. Transmission time of each message is Exponential with parameter λ = 6min^(- 1) Find the probability that all 78 messages are transmitted in less than 15 minutes. Use the Central Limit Theorem.

An economist has observed that the time between recessions has an exponential distribution with mean 100 months. Find the probability that the time between recessions will be located in the interval (50, 200) months given that it exceeds 100 months. (Enter your answer to two decimal places. For "0.72", you would write 0.72). Do not round.

When do creative people get their good ideas? USA Today did a survey of 966 inventors (who hold U.S. patents) and obtained the following information. Assuming that the time interval includes the left limit and all the times up to but not including the right limit, the probability that an inventor has a good idea during each time interval is the following: P(6 A.M.-noon) = 290/966, P(noon-6 P.M.) = 135/966, P(6 P.M.-midnight) = 319/966, P(midnight-6 A.M) = 222/966. State whether the following statement is true or false.All the outcomes are not equally likely.
