136. Let X denote the temperature at which a certain chemical reaction takes place. Suppose that X has pdf
The authors propose the values a = 150  and
b = 90. Assume this to be the correct model.
a.   What is the probability that the depth of the deepest pit is at most 150? At most 300? Be- tween 150 and 300?
b.   Below what value will the depth of the maximum pit be observed in 90% of all such experiments?
c.    What is the density function of X?
d.   The density function can be shown to be uni- modal (a single peak). Above what value on the
