Given that a student spends more than 1 hour in the cafe, find the probability they spend more than 3 hours. Compute three digits after the decimal point.

Find the value of the constant c that makes f(x) a valid probability density function.

A market research firm is studying the weekly expenditure on a certain commodity for a specific segment of the population. From past data, the expenditure of a single individual is known to be a random variable with mean 200 dollars and standard deviation 80 dollars. The firm surveys a random sample of 64 customers. Show your work on the scratch paper when answering Q16-19 below.

The figure below shows two overlapping probability distributions: The left distribution (I) corresponds to impostor attempts, the right distribution (A) corresponds to authentic users, and a decision threshold is used to decide whether to accept or reject a person. Four possible outcomes exist depending on which side of the threshold the sample falls (A-D each letter is marked in a distinct region of the figure). Match each outcome below with the correct region: False Positive (Type II Error) (5 points) Correct Rejection (True Negative) (5 points) False Negative (Type I Error) (5 points) Correct Acceptance (True Positive) (5 points)
