Hi. I was wondering if I could get help on how to approach this problem

The probability distribution function of the maximum annual wind speed \( v \) is given by:

\[
F_V(v) = \exp \left[ - \left( \frac{v}{V_c} \right)^{-\gamma} \right]
\]

with \( \gamma = 9.0 \) and \( V_c = 45 \) mph. Determine the design wind speed with a return period of 50 years (50-year wind speed).
