2. The life of a pie is exponentially distributed with a mean of three days. What is the probability that a pie that is baked just now will still be good after four days?

3. At the supermarket, a customer has to wait an average of four minutes in line before being served. The time a customer has to wait is exponentially distributed.

a) What is the probability that a customer will have to wait for more than eight minutes in line?

b) What is the probability that a customer will have to wait for three to seven minutes in line?

4. On average, 20 telephone calls are received per hour at an office. The time between calls received at this office is exponentially distributed.

a) What is the probability that no calls will come in during the next 10 minutes?

b) What is the probability that the next call will come in within 4 minutes?

5. Aysel works for a toy company and assembles five toys per hour on average. The assembly time for this toy follows an exponential distribution.

a) Find the probability that the next toy will take more than 15 minutes to assemble.
