Answer 1

Answer:

d. the travel time

Step-by-step explanation:

We are studying the travel time for the college student, which is between 40 and 90 minutes, distributed uniformly.

40 and 90 minutes are the intervals of the variable, and the variable is the travel time, which is random. Uniform is how the distribution is characterized, which means that each outcome(travel time beween 40 and 90 minutes) is equally as likely.

So the correct answer is:

d. the travel time
