Problem 9[8 pts]
Assume you are staying late today for tomorrow's exam. The exam is at 9 AM. You know the distribution of time from getting up to arriving at school. (since traffic time might be random). Because you are very sleepy, the performance of your exam depends on how much you can sleep, so you can get 0.2 more point every 1 more minute you sleep. If you arrive at the exam late, because of the limited time, every 1 more minute you are late for, on average you will lose 0.8 point. What's the optimal time for you to get up in the morning?
