Answer:
B=5
Step-by-step explanation:
a2+b2=c2
12squared+b2=13squared
144+b2=169 Subtract by 144 on both sides
b2=25 Find square root of 25
b=5
You refer to a rectangular distribution.
I.e. Area ∝ probability
so, length x height = area
=> 6 x height = 1
so, height = 1/6
Therefore, greater than 2.25 minutes => 8-2.25 = 5.75 minutes
=> 5.75 x 1/6 = 0.9583
Since this is uniformly distributed, there is no need to
find the height or standard deviation.
999/2=499.5
50% is equivilent to half so if you divide 999 by 2 you get 499.5
