The numbers of fill-time wage and salary workers in each age categony are almost uniformly distributed by age, with ages ranging from 18 to 65 years.If a worker with a flexible schedule is randomly drawn from the U.S. workforce, (a) what is the probability that he or she will be between 30 and 53 years of age? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) (b) What is the mean value for this distribution? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.) (e) What is the height of the distribution? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places) Click if you would like to Show Work for this question:

Explanation / Answer

a)P(between 30 and 53)=P(30<X<53)=(53-30)/(65-18)=0.4894

b)

mean =(a+b)/2=(18+65)/2=41.5

c)

height of distribution =1/(b-a)=1/(65-18)=0.0213
