The waiting times between a subway departure schedule and the arrival of a passenger are uniformly distributed between 0 and 9 minutes. Find the probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time greater than 1.25 minutes.

Respuesta :

Answer:

P(greater than 1.25 minutes) = 0.8611 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Waiting time = 0 - 9 minutes

Find:

Probability that selected passenger has a waiting time greater than 1.25 minutes.

Computation:

⇒ The probability that a randomly selected passenger has a waiting time greater than 1.25 minutes =

⇒  P(greater than 1.25 minutes) = [9-1.25] / 9

⇒ P(greater than 1.25 minutes) = [7.75] / 9

⇒ P(greater than 1.25 minutes) = 0.8611 (Approx)
