Section 2.8: 1, 5 (show the numerical computations for part (a) and then check your answer using Appendix A), 7, 9 (hint: find Var[X] and use problem 2.8.7), and 10.Notes: In Problem 2.8.9, the definition of q is opposite to the definition of q in Problem 2.6.5. Please replace the last sentence in Problem 2.8.9 with the following:
Section 2.9: 6.
Section 4.2: 1 and 4.
Section 4.3: 1.
"How small must the error probability q be to ensure that the jitter is less than 2 milliseconds?"Also, define the jitter as the standard deviation of the random variable T in Problem 2.6.5.
Clarification for Problem 2.9.6, part (b). The conditioning event N >= 20 is equivalent to having 19 consecutive tests without a failure. (The problem states 20 consecutive tests without a failure.)
