Question

Suppose a random variable x is best described by a uniform probability distribution with range 0 to 5. Find the value of a that makes the following probability statements true.

 

(d) P(x > a) = 0.32
a =
●
(e) P(0.05 ≤ x ≤ a) = 0.19
a =
●
Transcribed Image Text:(d) P(x > a) = 0.32 a = ● (e) P(0.05 ≤ x ≤ a) = 0.19 a = ●
Expert Solution
Step 1: Introducing the given information

We have given that
a = 0 , b = 5
The distribution is uniform 

The distribution of X is 
X ~ U(a, b)
X ~ U(0, 5)
