Four airplanes carrying a total of 400 passengers arrive at the Detroit airport. The airplanes carry, respectively, 50, 80, 110, and 160 passengers. a) One of the 400 passengers is selected uniformly at random. Let X denote the number of passengers that were on the airplane carrying the randomly selected passenger. Find Var(X) for X as given in the problem b) One of the 4 airplane drivers is also selected uniformly at random. Let Y denote the number of passengers on the chosen driver’s airplane. Find Var(Y) for Y as given in the problem

Your task is to implement this algorithm in Python, returning a random collection of inum-100, 000 points. You should then plot the points to see the structure. Please complete the following function: def sierpinski (po, v, f, inum) The four arguments are ·po the initial point. You may assume this is the origin, i.e., po = [0, 0] . v:...

Consider a cylindrical capacitor like that shown in Fig. 24.6. Let d = rb − ra be the spacing between the inner and outer conductors. (a) Let the radii of the two conductors be only slightly different, so that d << ra. Show that the result derived in Example 24.4 (Section 24.1) for the capacitance of a cylindrical capacitor then reduces to Eq. (24.2), the equation for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor, with A being the surface area of...
