Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m is 0.55.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable <em>X</em> denote the water depths.

As the variable water depths is continuous variable, the random variable <em>X</em> follows a continuous Uniform distribution with parameters <em>a</em> = 2.00 m and <em>b</em> = 7.00 m.

The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a};\ a

Compute the probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m as follows:

P(2.25

                               =\frac{1}{5.00}\int\limits^{5.00}_{2.25} {1} \, dx\\\\=0.20\times [x]^{5.00}_{2.25} \\\\=0.20\times (5.00-2.25)\\\\=0.55

Thus, the probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m is 0.55.
