The time (in hours) required to repair a machine is an exponentially distributed random variable with parameters. What is
the probability that a repair time exceedshours?
the conditional probability that a repair takes at leasthours, given that its duration exceedshours?
A fire station is to be located along a road of length. If fires occur at points uniformly chosen on, where should the station be located so as to minimize the expected distance from the fire? That is, choose a so as to
minimize
whenis uniformly distributed over
Now suppose that the road is of infinite length— stretching from point outward to. If the distance of fire from the point is exponentially distributed with rate, where should the fire station now be located? That is, we want to minimize, where is now exponential with rate.The number of minutes of playing time of a certain high school basketball player in a randomly chosen game is a random variable whose probability density function is given in the following figure:

Find the probability that the player plays
(a) more than minutes;
(b) between minutes;
(c) less than minutes;
(d) more than minutes
If is uniformly distributed over, find the density function of.
If is a beta random variable with parameters and , show that
