Question
An article suggests the uniform distribution on the interval from 7.5 to 20 as a model for x = depth (in centimeters) of the bioturbation layer in sediment for a certain region.
- What is the height of the density curve?
- What is the
probability that x is at most 16? P(x ≤ 16) = - What is the probability that x is between 14 and 18?
P(14 ≤ x ≤ 18) = - What is the probability that x is between 13 and 17?
P(13 ≤ x ≤ 17) =

- I. Say true or false. The area under a Probability density function is close to 1. a) b) The mean and variance of normal distribution are 0 and 1 respectively. _The chi-square is a special kind of gamma distribution with a = v/2 and B=3. _The Beta distribution is a special kind of Uniform distribution. _The small sample size imply less error in the estimation of a c) d) e) parameter. _If Variable Y is distributed Chis-square with 10 degrees of freedom, its variance is 5. If the sample size increase the width of the Confidence interval decreases.
