The number of minutes that train is early or late can be modeled by a random variable whose density is given by: g(t) = {(1/972)(81 − t^2), −9 ≤ t ≤ 9, 0 elsewhere, where negative values indicate the train arriving early and positive values indicate the train arriving late. a. Find the probability that one of the train trips will arrive more than 5 minutes early. b. Find the probability that one of the train trips will arrive between 1 and 8 minutes late. c. Without integration, give the expected number of minutes early/late. Examination of the graph and recollection of properties of integrals will allow this.
The number of minutes that train is early or late can be modeled by a random variable whose density is given by: g(t) = {(1/972)(81 − t^2), −9 ≤ t ≤ 9, 0 elsewhere, where negative values indicate the train arriving early and positive values indicate the train arriving late. a. Find the
Given the density function for the random variable, the number of minutes that train is early or late as
where negative values indicate the train arriving early and positive values indicate the train arriving late.
