Question 1086910: Births are approximately uniformly distributed between the 52 weeks of the year. They can be said to follow a uniform distribution from one to 53 (spread of 52 weeks).
(a) Enter an exact number as an integer, fraction, or decimal.
P(17 < x < 34) =
(b) Find the probability that a person is born after week 37.
(c) P(12 < x | x < 27) =
Answer by Boreal(15235)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! That is weeks 18-33 inclusive or 16 weeks; the 1-17 and the last 20, 34-53
not considered. Note: week 1 takes everything from 0 to and including 1, and week 53 takes everything from 52 (not included) to and including 53.
16/53
=========================
After week 37 includes weeks 38-53 or 16/53.
=========================
given that x <27, the probability it is <12 is 11/26.
