In: Statistics and Probability
Given below are 10 observations which we believe comes from the exponential distribution with λ= 10.
Give the 10 ordered pairs which you would need to construct a probability plot you could use to verify this assumption.
1.08, 4.24, 33.40, 29.26, 2.94, 15.92, 1.96, 10.47, 16.71, 14.27
density function in exponential distribution
lambda = 1/10
f(x) = lambda * exp( - lambda* x)
X | Prob(X=x) |
1.08 | 0.089763 |
1.96 | 0.082201 |
2.94 | 0.074528 |
4.24 | 0.065442 |
10.47 | 0.035099 |
14.27 | 0.024003 |
15.92 | 0.020352 |
16.71 | 0.018806 |
29.26 | 0.005361 |
33.4 | 0.003544 |
Given below is the probaility density function

However, for taking lambda =10 ( which I suspect is wrong) the results hold and distribution plot seems to be not exponential
