for uniform distribution ; parameter a =3 and b=12
a)
P(X<8)=(x-a)/(b-a) =(8-3)/(12-3)=5/9
b)
P(X=6) =0 (as for continuous distribution ; point probability is equal to 0)
c)
std deviation =(b-a)/sqrt(12)=(12-3)/sqrt(12)=2.598

If a person takes the bus 30 times a month commuting between his dorm and the Dining Hall. It takes the bus 10 minutes to run one loop. The waiting time, in minutes, for a bus to arrive is uniformly distributed on the interval [0, 10]. Suppose that waiting times on different occasions are independent. What is the standard deviation of the mean waiting time in minutes of a month? Round your answer to three decimal digits. What is the...
