Time headway in traffic flow is the elapsed time between the time that one car finishes passing a fixed point and the instant that the next car begins to pass that point. What is the probability that headway time is at most 5seconds given the function of a continuous random variable as: * .15e¯-15(x-.5) x2 .5 f(x) otherwise

It is desired to build a structure like the one in the figure with a volume of V (hemispherical and six cylinders on top).Half of the cylindrical part of this structure will be buried under the ground, and the rest will be buried in the ground.will be above it. The material to be used in the construction of the underground partSince it has 4 times the cost of the one above ground, such a structure has a minimum cost.What size should it be in order to be finished at a cost?
Your company are designing metal trays. They will be made out of a sheet of metal which has a perimeter of 80 cm. The box is made by removing squares of side y = 2 cm from each corner of the rectangle and then folding in the sides. A net is shown below. Your company wants to maximise the capacity of these trays and wants you to investigate what value of x will give you the maximum volume. Investigate how changing the size of the square at each corner would affect the capacity of the tray and investigate the value of y which would give you maximum volume. Y cm x cm
