Do not turn this page until told to. Each of the 6 problems is worth 20 points. 6 for o ce use: suppose that a, b and c randomly and independently choose 3, 4, and 5 objects respectively, out of 10 objects. Find the expected number of objects (a) chosen by all three by a, b and c? (b) chosen by at least one of a, b and c: let x be an exponential random variable with rate 1. Find the density of the following. (a) y = log x (b) z = e x: a monkey types an in nite sequence of independent random characters, each one is equally likely to be a, b, c, d, . Hint: represent x as a sum of two numbers: jill"s bowling scores are approximately normally distributed with mean 170 and standard devia- tion 20, while jack"s scores are approximately normally distributed with mean 160 and standard deviation 15.
