A resort that is a major vacation destination consists of 1,450 acres of land, so the resort provides shuttle buses for visitors who need to travel within the resort. Suppose the wait time for a shuttle bus follows a uniform distribution with a minimum time of 30 seconds and a maximum time of 9 minutes. Complete parts a through e.
a. What is the probability that a visitor will need to wait more than 22 minutes for the next shuttle?
The probability is _________.
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
b. What is the probability that a visitor will need to wait less than 6.5 minutes for the next shuttle?
The probability is _______.
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
c. What is the probability that a visitor will need to wait between 5 and 7 minutes for the next shuttle?
The probability is ________.
d. Calculate the mean and standard deviation for this distribution.
The mean of the given uniform distribution is μ=______. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)
The standard deviation of the given uniform distribution is σ =________. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
d. Calculate the mean and standard deviation for this distribution.
The mean of the given uniform distribution is μ=_______.
(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)
The standard deviation of the given uniform distribution is
σ=_______. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
e. The resort has a goal that 70% of the time, the wait for the shuttle will be less than 66 minutes. Is this goal being achieved?
The goal (is;is not) being achieved, because the area under the distribution to the left of 66 is _______
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
