This problem is designed to aid in the understanding of length-biased sampling. Let X be a uniformly distributed random variable on [0,1]. Then X divides [0,1] into the subinterval [0, X) and (X,1]. By symmetry, each subinterval has mean length 1/2. Now pick one of these subintervals at random in the following way:
Let Y be independent of X and uniformly distributed in [0,1], and pick the subinterval [0, X] or (X,1] that Y falls in. Let L be the length of the subinterval so chosen. Formally,
L = { X if Y<_X
1 - X if Y > X}
A) Determine the mean of L.

Someone answer asap for ! a discount store’s prices are 25% lower than department store prices. the function c(x) = 0.75x can be used to determine the cost c, in dollars, of an item, where x is the department store price, in dollars. if the item has not sold in one month, the discount store takes an additional 20% off the discounted price and an additional $5 off the total purchase. the function d(y) = 0.80y - 5 can be used to find d, the cost, in dollars, of an item that has not been sold for a month, where y is the discount store price, in dollars. create a function d(c(x)) that represents the final price of an item when a costumer buys an item that has been in the discount store for a month. d(c(x)) =
