Explanation / Answer

Q7.

UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION

PDF of uniform distribution f(x) = 1 / ( b - a ) for a < x < b

b = maximum Value

a = minimum Value

f(x) = 1/(b-a) = 1 / (7.3-0.3) = 1 / 7 = 0.1429

I.

mean = a + b / 2

=(0.3+7.3)/2

=3.8

II.

standard deviation = sqrt ( ( b - a ) ^ 2 / 12 )

=sqrt(7.3-0.3)^2 / 12

=2.021

To find P(a < X < b) =( b - a ) * f(x)

P(1.3 < X < 3.3) = (3.3-1.3) * f(x)

=2/7
