The waiting times between a subway departure schedule and the arrival of a passenger are uniformly distributed between 0 and 5 minutes. Find the probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time greater than 2.25 minutes.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Solution :

Given that,

a = 0

b = 5

P(x > c) = (b - c) / (b - a)

p( x > 2.25) = ( 5 - 2.25 ) /( 5 - 0)

= 2.75/ 5

= 0.55

Probability = 0.55
