A water hydrant dispenses water at a rate described by a uniform distribution over the interval 50 to 70 gallons per minute. Find the probability that between 58 gallons and 62 gallons are dispensed during a randomly selected minute.
Solution :
Given that,
a = 50
b = 70
P(c < x < d) = (d - c) / (b - a)
P(58 < x < 62) = (62 - 58) / (70 - 50)
P(58 < x < 62) = 0.20

A machine is set to pump cleanser into a process at a rate of 6 gallons per minutes. Upon inspection, it is learned that the machine actually pumps cleanser at a rate described by the uniform distribution over the interval 5.5 to 8.5 gallons per minute. Find the probability that between 6 and 7 gallons are pumped during a randomly selected minute.
