Find the a probability function of Y. b conditional probability function of Y₁, given that Y = m. Y₁ = m. c conditional probability function of Y₁+Y2, given that 6.55 Customers arrive at a department store checkout counter according to a Poisson distribution with a mean of 7 per hour. In a given two-hour period, what is the probability that 20 or more customers will arrive at the counter? 6.56 The length of time necessary to tune up a car is exponentially distributed with a mean of .5 hour. If two cars are waiting for a tune-up and the service times are independent, what is the probability that the total time for the two tune-ups will exceed 1.5 hours? [Hint: Recall the result of Example 6.12.] 6.57 Let Y, Y2,..., Y,, be independent random variables such that each Y, has a gamma distribution with parameters a, and B. That is, the distributions of the Y's might have different a's, but…arrow_forward

If Y₁, Y2,..., Y, are independent, exponentially dis- tributed random variables with mean ẞ and median m, Example 6.17 implies that Y(n) = max(Y₁, Y., Y) does not have an exponential distribution. Use the general form of FY() (y) to show that P(Y(n) > m) = 1 - (.5)". Refer to Exercise 6.82. If Y₁, Y2,..., Y,, is a random sample from any continuous distribution with mean m, what is P(Y(n) > m)? Refer to Exercise 6.26. The Weibull density function is given by -my" m-le-y/a f(y)= α 0. y > 0, elsewhere, where a and m are positive constants. If a random sample of size n is taken from a Weibull distributed population, find the distribution function and density function for Y(1) = min(Y1, Y2,Y). Does Y(1) = have a Weibull distribution? Let Y₁ and Y2 be independent and uniformly distributed over the interval (0, 1). Find P(2Y(1) 0, elsewhere,…arrow_forwardWhich of the functions shown below is differentiable at = 0?
