An empirical probability distribution based on weekly study times for a sample of 40 students is provided to the right. Suppose one of those students was chosen randomly. In parts (a) through (d) below, using your distribution, find the probability that the study time in the past week for the student selected would have been in each of the following ranges.

Question 4: According to historic data, on average, 5 traffic accidents occur per month at intersection A. If the probability that more than 2 accidents happen at that intersection is more than a given threshold p, the municipality will take corrective actions to improve the intersection safety. You have been asked to investigate if the municipality should take corrective actions or not. What type of probability distribution should you use to check this and is this a discrete or continuous probability distribution?
