Could you help me how to do this? I really want to figure out how to do them Thanks!(4) A common concern in urban areas is stormwater discharge. Most urban areas have stormwater sewers, whose job is to direct stormwater into nearby streams and rivers to prevent flooding of the urban area. The problem with this approach is that stormwater, as it runs over paved areas, usually picks up all kinds of pollutants, and then the stormwater sewer drains these pollutants directly in to the natural waterways. Without the stormwater sewers, the stormwater would filter its way through the ground, eventually reaching the natural waterways, but only after natural processes had a chance to filter the water. Thus, the use of stormwater sewers is essentially a tradeoff between cleanliness of natural waterways and preventing urban flooding. A common measurement for a given parcel of land is its percent imperviousness: the percentage of the area that is impervious to water (like concrete driveways, parking lots, building footprints, etc.). In some places, you carn be taxed extra for having a percent imperviousness above some threshold, which is meant to encourage more natural areas, as well as the use of pervious substitutes for things like concrete Explain why the beta distribution would be a good candidate for modeling the percent imperviousness of a randomly chosen property. a. b. A typical suburban property might have a total area of 1/3 acre, with a housing footprint of 2500 square feet, although there can be some variation around that. Find examples of parameters and for the beta distribution that would might represent this situation. Show a plot of the resulting pdf.
Explanation / Answer
1) the importance of beat distribution is that the Beta distribution can be understood as representing a distribution of probabilities that is, it represents all the possible values of a probability when we don't know what that probability is Here in this case the challenge we have is to prepare a model of the percent imperviousness of randomly chosen property and from the information above in the scenario we have no probability values given nor the exactness of chosing the property hence beta distributon could play an important role in this matter.
