Answer:
a) 33.33%)
b) 135 minutes
c) 8.66 min
d) 50%
Step-by-step explanation:
a) the probability for a uniform distribution is
P(b<X<a) = (a-b)/(c-d) , where c and d are the maximum and minimum values
therefore the probability that the flight is more than 140 minutes ( and less than 150 since it is the maximum value)
P(140<X<150) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (150-140)/(150-120) = 10/30 = 1/3 (33.33%)
b) the mean (expected value) for a uniform probability distribution is
E(X) = (c+d)/2 = (120+150)/2 = 135 minutes
c) the standard deviation for a uniform probability distribution is
σ²(X)= (c-d)²/12 = (150-120)²/12 = 75 min²
σ = √75 min² = 8.66 min
b) following the same procedure as in a)
P(120<X<135) = (a-b)/(c-d) = (135-120)/(150-120) = 15/30 = 1/2 (50%)

Answer: 2.5 hours is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
It took Travis 2.5 hours to complete 3/4 of his trip. To find the average speed, we need to find his speed during 3/4 of the trip and then the 52.5 miles.
So you know that 52.5 is 1/4 of his total trip. That means if we multiply that by 3, that's how many miles he traveled in 2.5hrs. (157.5)
To calculate speed, divide distance by time.
For 3/4 of his trip (157.5), it took him 2.5 hours.
157.5/2.5 = 63mph
For the remaining 52.5 miles, it took him an hour.
52.5/1 = 52.5mph
Now average those two speeds to get the average speed for the whole trip.
(63+52.5)/2= 57.6mph
