Question 1149462: The random variable X is known to be uniformly distributed between 10 and 20
1).show the graph of the probability density function
2).compute p(X<15)
3).compute p(12
4).find the var(X) and the E(X) Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Draw a number line from 1 to 20
the probability is 0.1
Between 10 and 20 on the x-axis, y=0.1
probability x<15 is 0.5, because the rectangle is 5 long and 0.1 wide
probability of x=12.4 exact is 0, because it is a single dimensionless point.
expected value is 15 (a+b)/2
variance is (b-a)^2/12=10^2/12=8.33
