    This document contains a chapter test for an engineering data analysis course. The test contains 5 problems involving calculating probabilities and distributions from probability density functions and binomial distributions. Problem 1 has several parts involving calculating probabilities from an exponential distribution. Problem 2 involves finding the proportion of rods that fail specifications based on a uniform distribution. Problem 3 requires calculating the mean and variance of a uniform distribution. Problem 4 involves finding statistics of a distribution uniform between 2 time points. Problem 5 uses a binomial distribution to approximate probabilities.

    proportion of the bars fail to meet the specifications?

    c. Assume that the probability density function is f(x) = 2 for an interval of

    length 0.5 meters. Over what value the density should be centered to

    achieve the greatest proportion of bars within specifications?

    for a database is usually between 1.5 and 2.2 minutes.

    d. What is the mean and variance of the time it takes the operator to fill out the

    form?
