Answer #1

The CDF F(t) is given as,

(The limits of integration is from 1 to t as t ≥ 1)

Using below R code, the plot is generated.

t = seq(1,10, by = 0.05)
lambda = 1 + 0.5 * t + 10/t
op <- par(mfrow=c(2,1),mar=c(4,4,2,1))
plot(t, lambda, type = "l", ylab = "lambda")
ft = (1 + 0.5 * t) * exp(-t - 0.25 * t^2 + 1.25) + t^(-9)/9
plot(t, ft, type = "l", ylab = "f(t)")

For time 0<t<10 water is flowing into a small tub at a rate given by the function F defined by F(t) = arctan(pi/2-t/10). For time 5<t<10 water is leaking from the tub at a rate given by the function L defined by L(t) = 0.03(20t -t^2-75). Both F(t) and L(t) are measured in cubic feet per minute, and t is meaured in minutes. The volume of water in the tub, at time t is given by W(t). a. At t...

A four-lane freeway (two lanes in each direction) has the arrival flow rate of λ(t)=40-0.15t (with t in minutes and λ(t) in vehicles per minute). At 7 am, an accident occurred in the northbound and blocked both lanes. Twenty minutes later, one lane was opened. At 7:40 am the accident was cleared and both lanes were opened. The capacity of the highway is 2,200 vehicles per hour per lane if not impacted by an accident. (Assuming D/D/1 queuing). When did...
