Two students, A and B, are working independently on homework (not necessarily for the same class). Student A takes X = Exp(1) hours to finish his or her homework, while B takes Y = Exp(2) hours. (a) Find the CDF of X/Y , the ratio of their problem-solving times. (b) Find the probability that A finishes his or her homework before B does.

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) The CDF of X/Y is calculated as:

[tex]F_{z} (\zeta) = \frac{\zeta}{\zeta + 2}[/tex] for [tex]0 < \zeta < \infty[/tex]  

[tex]F_{z} (\zeta) = 0[/tex] for [tex]\zeta \leq 0[/tex]

Note: Z = X/Y

b) Probability that A finishes before B = 1/3
