Suppose you select one value from a uniform distribution with a = 0 and b = 10. What is the probability that the value will be a. Between 5 and 7? b. Between 2 and 3? c. What is the mean? d. What is the standard deviation?

Step 1
The range is 7 - 5 = 2. Since the total range is 10 - 0 = 10, the probability is 2/10 = 0.2. Show more…

A uniform distribution is defined over the interval from 6 to 10. a. What are the values for $a$ and $b$ ? b. What is the mean of this uniform distribution? c. What is the standard deviation? d. Show that the total area is 1.00 . e. Find the probability of a value more than 7 . f. Find the probability of a value between 7 and $9 .$

The random variable $A$ has the following probability distribution: $$\begin{array}{l|ccccc}\hline \mathbf{A} & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\P(\boldsymbol{A}) & 0.6 & 0.1 & 0.1 & 0.1 & 0.1 \\\hline\end{array}$$ a. Find the mean and standard deviation of $A .$ b. How much of the probability distribution is within 2 standard deviations of the mean? c. What is the probability that $A$ is between $\mu-2 \sigma$ and $\mu+2 \sigma ?$
