A random variable has a triangular probability density function with a = 50, b = 375, and m = 250.
What is the probability that the random variable will assume a value between 70 and 250? If required, round your answer to four decimal places.
| What is the probability that the random variable will assume a value greater than 280? If required, round your answer to four decimal places. |

Every day of spring the probability that a thunderstorm takes place in Toronto is 0,005. We assume that the events are independent and that the spring starts March 21st.
1) What is the probability that the third storm takes place May 1st?
2) What is the probability that the third storm takes place May 1st knowing that it is April 15th and a storm has just occurred the first time this Spring?

You are given an unfair coin (the probability of heads is 1/3) and decide to toss it ten times. Following Example 5.3 in your textbook, plot the binomial probability mas function for N = 10 and p = 1/3. What is the probability that the coin will come up heads 5 times in 10 tosses?
Determine the mean, variance, and joint second moments.

Amazon's third-largest market is the United Kingdom. In 2019, the employees at a local firm in London received their salary and decided to spend a portion of it on making online purchases from Amazon. The probability that the online purchases will be shipped on time to each employee is 0.68. Determine the following:
a. The probability that three products will be shipped on time.
b. The probability that out of three, two products will be shipped on time.

describe an example that uses discrete probabilities or distributions. Provide an example that follows either the binomial probabilities or any discrete probability distribution, and explain why that example follows that distribution. In your responses to other students, make up numbers for the example provided by that other student, and ask a related probability question. Then show the work (or describe the technology steps) and solve that probability example.
