6)- A manufacturing company has developed a fuel-efficient machine that combines pressure washing with steam cleaning. It is designed to deliver 7 gallons of cleaner per minute at 1,000 pounds per square inch for pressure washing. In fact, it delivers an amount at random anywhere between 6.5 and 7.5 gallons per minute. Assume that y, the amount of cleaner delivered, is a uniform random variable with probability density fM) = {% if 6.5 < y < 7.5 elsewhere 1. Find the mean and standard deviation of y. Graph f(y), showing the locations of the mean, 1 and 2 standard deviation intervals around the mean. 2. Find the probability that more than 7.2 gallons of cleaner are dispensed per minute.

6)- A manufacturing company has developed a fuel-efficient machine that combines pressure washing with steam cleaning.
It is designed to deliver 7 gallons of cleaner per minute at 1,000 pounds per square inch for pressure washing. In fact, it
delivers an amount at random anywhere between 6.5 and 7.5 gallons per minute. Assume that y, the amount of cleaner
delivered, is a uniform random variable with probability density
fM) = {}
if 6.5 < y < 7.5
elsewhere
1. Find the mean and standard deviation of y. Graph f(y), showing the locations of the mean, 1 and 2 standard deviation
intervals around the mean.
2. Find the probability that more than 7.2 gallons of cleaner are dispensed per minute.
