Question:
The 10-year largest rainstorm produces rainfall (R) in inches at a site of interest that follow an extreme value, largest type I, distribution with a mean of 20 in. and a standard deviation of 8 in. The drainage system at the site can handle 25 in. rainfall beyond which flooding would occur. Determine the probability that the drainage system will not meet demand according for such events. Assume that such storms have a return period of 10 years, what is the probability of having one 10-year storm in a year that exceeds the capacity of the drainage system.
