Answer:

a) 2/3

b) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random event that measures the time you will have to wait.  

Since time is uniformly distributed between 10 and 10:30 in intervals of 1 minute

P(n < X ≤ n+1) = 1/30 for every minute n=0,1,...29.

a)

P( X > 10) = 1 - P(X ≤ 10) = 1 - 10/30 = 2/3

b)

P(10 <  X ≤ 20) = (20-10)/30 = 1/3

Total distance the rover need to travel ​is D = 1miles .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , Garne Problem med   . A rover needs to travel mile to reach its destination  traveled mile. a rover needs to travel 5/8 mile to reach its destination it has already travel 3/8 miles . We need to find that  how much farther does the rover need to travel ​ , Let's do it step by step:

First , rover has already traveled 3/8 miles , Let total distance to be traveled by rover is D :

⇒ D = \frac{3}{8} + d , where d is distance left to cover .

Now, rover need to travel 5/8 miles more to reach destination :

⇒ D = \frac{3}{8} + d , where d is distance left to cover  , So d = \frac{5}{8}

⇒ D = \frac{3}{8} + d

⇒ D = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{5}{8}

⇒ D = \frac{3+5}{8}

⇒ D = \frac{8}{8}

⇒ D = 1miles

∴ Total distance the rover need to travel ​is D = 1miles .
