consider the continuous random variable x, which has a uniform distribution over the interval from 30 to 38. the probability that x will take on a value between 34 and 35 is . a. 0.125 b. 0 c. 1 d. 0.875



Answer :

Probability that a continuous random variable (x) will take on a value between 34 and 35 is 1/8

Uniform distribution is a type of probability distribution which consists constant probability.

It is also known as Rectangular distribution and

denoted by U( x,y ) .

let X be a continuous random variable then

X ~ U( x,y) where x is maximum value and y is minimum value .

Probability density function of uniform distribution is f(X) = 1/(b-a) , where

b---> maximum value , a---> minimum value

we have provided the interval of uniform distribution as 30 to 38 i.e b = 38 , a = 30

then , f( X) = 1/ (38-30) = 1/8

Probability that X will take on value between c and d is

P ( c ≤X≤ d ) =( d -c )/ (b-a )

Probability that X will take on a value between 34 and 35 is

P ( 34X35) = ( 35-34)/ 8 = 1/8
