Question

If a uniform distribution is defined over the interval from 6 to 10, then answer the followings:

  1. What is the mean of this uniform distribution?
  2. Show that the probability of any value between 6 and 10 is equal to 1.0
  3. Find the probability of a value more than 7.
  4. Find the probability of a value between 7 and 9.

 

The closing price of Schnur Sporting Goods Inc. common stock is uniformly distributed between $20 and $30 per share. What is the probability that the stock price will be:

The April rainfall in Flagstaff, Arizona, follows a uniform distribution between 0.5 and 3.00 inches.

  1. What is the mean amount of rainfall for the month?
  2. What is the probability of less than an inch of rain for the month?
  3. What is the probability of exactly 1.00 inch of rain?
  4. What is the probability of more than 1.50 inches of rain for the month?

The best way to solve this problem is begin by a step by step creating a chart. Clearly mark the range, identifying the lower and upper bounds, along with the height, X. Then, highlight the specific area for which the probability will be calculated.
