This document contains instructions and questions for an online midterm exam in engineering mathematics. It has four sections: 1) defining key terms, 2) enumerating and explaining properties of probability distributions, 3) distinguishing statistical concepts, and 4) solving probability problems. The problems involve joint and marginal probability distributions, Poisson processes, and the normal distribution. The exam is intended to test students' understanding of concepts from the course guide and learning modules.

lights on the route. Let X1 denote the number of red lights the truck encounters going from A to B and X2
denote the number encountered on the return trip. Data collected over a long period suggest that the joint
probability distribution for (X1, X2) is given by
