Question

The time taken to answer a quiz question for a randomly chosen student has a uniform probability distribution from 5 minutes to 15 minutes. What is the value of the density function?

Answer 1

Solution:

X follows Uniform Distribution with

a = 5 and b = 15

The density function of Uniform distribution is given by

f(x) = $\frac{1}{b-a}$ =  
15-5
= $\frac{1}{10}$

f(x) = $\frac{1}{10}$
