I switched both sides of the equation in the very beginning so it would be easier to solve.
Answer:
0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
- The uniform distribution parameters are as follows:
a = $10,000 b = $15,000
Find:-
Suppose you bid $12,000. What is the probability that your bid will be accepted?
Solution:-
- We will denote a random variable X that defines the bid placed being accepted. The variable X follows a uniform distribution with parameters [a,b].
X ~ U(10,000 , 15,000)
- The probability of $12,000 bid being accepted can be determined by the cdf function of the uniform distribution, while the pmf is as follows:
Pmf = 1 / ( b - a )
Pmf = 1 / ( 15,000 - 10,000 )
Pmf = 1 / ( 5,000 )
Answer:
The area of the shaded figure is:
- <u>20 units^2</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
To obtain the area of the shaded figure, first, you must calculate this as a rectangle, with the measurements: wide (4 units), and long (6 units):
- Area of a rectangle = long * wide
- Area of a rectangle = 6 * 4
- Area of a rectangle = 24 units^2
How the figure isn't a rectangle, you must subtract the triangle on the top, so, now we calculate the area of that triangle with measurements: wide (4 units), and height (2 units):
- Area of a triangle =
- Area of a triangle =
- Area of a triangle =
- Area of a triangle = 4 units^2
In the end, you subtract the area of the triangle to the area of the rectangle, to obtain the area of the shaded figure:
- Area of the shaded figure = Area of the rectangle - Area of the triangle
- Area of the shaded figure = 24 units^2 - 4 units^2
- <u>Area of the shaded figure = 20 units^2</u>
I use the name "units" because the exercise doesn't say if they are feet, inches, or another, but you can replace this in case you need it.
