Each front tire on a particular type of vehicle is supposed to be filled to a pressure of 26 psi. Suppose the actual air pressure in each tire is a random variable, X for the right tire and Y for the left tire, with joint pdf K(z² + y²) f(x,y) 20 ≤ ≤ 30, 20 ≤ y ≤ 30 otherwise (a) What is the value of K? (Enter your answer as a fraction.) K=[ (b) What is the probability that both tires are underfilled? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) What is the probability that the difference in air pressure between the two tires is at most 2 psi? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (d) Determine the (marginal) distribution of air pressure in the right tire alone. for 20 ≤z ≤ 30 (e) Are X and Y independent rv's? Oves, f(x, y) = fx(z) - fy (u), so X and Y are independent. Oves, f(x,y) #fx(z) - fy (u), so X and Y are independent.

Eastern Hemlock Ring shake, which is the separation of the wood between growth rings, is a serious problem in hemlock trees. Researchers have developed the following function that estimates the probability P that a given hemlock tree has ring shake: P(A,B,D)=11+e3.680.016A0.77B0.12D where A is the age of the tree yr, B is 1 if bird pecking is present and 0 otherwise, and D is the diameter in. of the tree at breast height. Source: Forest Products Journal. a. Estimate the probability that a 150-year-old tree with bird pecking present and a breast height diameter of 20in., will have ring shake. b. Estimate the probability that a 150-year-old tree, with no presence of bird pecking and a breast height diameter of 20in., will have ring shake. c. Develop a statement about what can be said about the influence have on the probability of ring shake. d. Using the total differential, estimate the probability if the actual age of the tree was 160 years and the diameter at breast height was 25in., Assume that no bird pecking was present. Compare your answer to the actual value. Hint: Assume that B=0 and exclude that variable from your calculations e. Comment on the practicality of using differentials in part d.
