They have, respectively, probabilities . 7 and . 01 of ling claims within a given year. One tenth of the clients are high risk. , xn are independent random variables, each of which has uni- form distribution on [0, 1]. Let y denote the maximum output of x1, . , xn. (a) (10 points) if c is a number in [0, 1], what is the probability that y c? (b) (10 points) compute e(y ). Show work: (a) (10 points) suppose x is uniformly distributed on [0, 1].
