Question 755857
A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between 46.0 and 56.0 minutes. Find the probability that a given class period runs between 51.25 and 51.5 minutes (round to three decimal places as needed). 
------
Uniform distribution means the distribution has the shape of a rectangle.
-----
Base = 56-46 = 10
Height = 1/10 so the area of the rectangle is 1.
----
P(51.25<= x <= 51.50) = base*height = 0.25*(1/10) = 0.0250
