Suppose a research paper states that the distribution of the daily sea-ice advance/retreat from each sensor is similar and is approximately double exponential. The proposed double exponential distribution has density function f(x) = 0.5?e−?|x| for −∞ < x < ∞. The standard deviation is given as 40.6 km. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
