Question

The completion times for a job task range from 10.1 minutes to 19.2 minutes and are thought to be uniformly distributed. What is the probability that it will require between 12.7 and 16.8 minutes to perform the task

Answer 1

Answer:

The  probability is  $P(12.7 < x < 16.8 ) = 0.45$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The completion times for a job task range from 10.1 minutes to 19.2 minutes

Generally given that the completion times is uniformly distributed then  the probability that it will require between 12.7 and 16.8 minutes is mathematically represented as

         $P(12.7 < x < 16.8 ) = \frac{ 16.8 - 12.7}{ 19.2 - 10.1 }$

          $P(12.7 < x < 16.8 ) = 0.45$
