    6:00pm-6:30pm a) Packets arrive at a processing facility that has two processors‚ a slow one and a fast one; packets are routed to the slow processor with probability 2/3 and in this case they experience a delay that is an exponentially distributed random variable with mean 3ms. However‚ when packets are routed to the fast processor they experience a constant processing delay of Ims. a) (4 points) Derive and plot the cumulative distribution function and the probability density ofthe packet delay and b)

    PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION In the world of statistics‚ we are introduced to the concept of probability. On page 146 of our text‚ it defines probability as "a value between zero and one‚ inclusive‚ describing the relative possibility (chance or likelihood) an event will occur" (Lind‚ 2012). When we think about how much this concept pops up within our daily lives‚ we might be shocked to find the results. Oftentimes‚ we do not think in these terms‚ but imagine what the probability of us getting behind

    Distribution Essay Example Suppose you flip a coin two times. This simple statistical experiment can have four possible outcomes: HH‚ HT‚ TH‚ and TT. Now‚ let the random variable X represent the number of Heads that result from this experiment. The random variable X can only take on the values 0‚ 1‚ or 2‚ so it is a discrete random variable Binomial Probability Function: it is a discrete distribution. The distribution is done when the results are not ranged along a wide range‚ but are actually binomial
