The Uniform Distribution · Exercise 33

For each probability and percentile problem, draw the picture.

The age of a first grader on September 1 at Garden Elementary School is uniformly distributed from 5.8 to 6.8 years. We randomly select one first grader from the class.

(a) Define the random variable. X = _________
(b) Graph the probability distribution.
(c) f(x) = _________
(d) μ = _________
(e) σ = _________
(f) Find the probability that she is over 6.5 years old.
(g) Find the probability that she is between four and six years old.

Its source prints no answer for this problem, so there's nothing to check against.
