Using the uniform distribution, it is found that there is a 0.3 = 30% probability that Samantha has to wait less than 4.5 minutes to catch the bus.

<h3>What is the uniform probability distribution?</h3>

It is a distribution with two bounds, a and b, in which each outcome is equally as likely.

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}

In this problem, the time is uniformly distributed between 0 and 15 minutes, hence the bounds are a = 0 and b = 15.

The probability that Samantha has to wait less than 4.5 minutes to catch the bus is given by:

P(X < 4.5) = \frac{4.5 - 0}{15 - 0} = 0.3

(HELP WITH THIS )Suppose ages of cars driven by company employees are normally distributed with a mean of 8 years and a
8090 [49]

Answer:

Let say 75% of  cars older than age  = Y  years

than 25 % cars of age less than Y Years

Z score corresponding to 25 %  =  -0.674

Z score = (Value - Mean) /SD

Value = Y

Mean = 8

SD = 3.2

Z score = -0.674

-0.674 = (Y - 8)/3.2

=> Y =5.84 Years

=> Y ≈ 5.9 Years

Approximately 75% of cars driven by company employees are older than  about 5.9 years
