Suppose a particular state allows individuals filing tax returns to itemize deductions only if the total of all itemized deductions is at least $5000. Let X (in 1000s of dollars) be the total of itemized deductions on a randomly chosen form. Assume that X has the pdf
f(x;a) = { k/xa x ≥ 5
0 otherwise
a. Find the value of k. What restriction on α is necessary?
b. What is the cdf of X?
c. What is the expected total deduction on a randomly chosen form? What restriction on α is necessary for E(X) to be finite?
d. Show that ln(X/5) has an exponential distribution with parameter α–1.

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry.how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.
