A person arrives at a bus stop each morning. The waiting time, in minutes, for a bus to arrive is uniformly distributed on the interval (0,15). a. What is the probability that the waiting time is less than 5 minutes? b. Suppose the waiting times on different mornings are independent. What is the probability that the waiting time is less than 5 minutes on exactly 4 of 10 mornings?

Part 3: The Uniform Distribution
Suppose that you need to take a bus that comes every 30 minutes.
Assume that the amount of time you have to wait for this bus has a
uniform distribution between 0 and 30 minutes. The probability
density curve for this distribution is given below.
1) Is waiting time a discrete or continuous random variable?
2) What is the area of this entire rectangle?

Suppose that U is a random variable with a uniform distribution on (0,1). Now suppose that f is the PDF of some continuous random variable of interest, that F is the corresponding CDF, and assume that F is invertible (so that the function F-1 exists and gives a unique value). Show that the random variable X = F-1(U) has PDF f(x)—that is, that X has the desired PDF. Hint: use results on transformations of random variables. This cute result allows...

median voter is a random variable drawn from the uniform

w is –(1-w)^2
