Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 67E
Exercises 66 through 68 refer to Example 5.23 . In this example, the problem is to find an optimal route (i.e., a route with the fewest bridge crossings) for a photographer who needs to cross each of the 11 bridges of Madison County for a photo shoot. The layout of the 11 bridges is shown in Fig. 5-62 . You may find it helpful to review Example 5.23 before trying these two exercises.
Figure 5-62
Describe an optimal route for the photographer if the route must start and end in D and the first bridge crossed must be the Adams Bridge.

In Gallup's Annual Consumption Habits Poll, telephone interviews were conducted for a
random sample of 1014 adults aged 18 and over. One of the questions was, "How many
cups of coffee, if any, do you drink on an average day?" The following table shows the
results obtained (Gallup website, August 6, 2012).

Define a random variable x = number of cups of coffee consumed on an average day. Let
x=4 represent four or more cups.
a. Develop a probability distribution for x.
b. Compute the expected value of x.
c. Compute the variance of x.
d. Suppose we are only interested in adults who drink at least one cup of coffee on an
average day. For this group, let y = the number of cups of coffee consumed on an
average day. Compute the expected value of y and compare it to the expected value of x.

The predicted winning point margin was based on Las Vegas betting odds approximately
one week before the bowl games were played. For example, Auburn was predicted to beat
Northwestern in the Outback Bowl by five points. The actual winning point margin for Au-
burn was three points. A…
