The Kunkel's host a game night every weekend.  The duration of these game nights, typically, last between 90 minutes and 180 minutes.  Assume the durations follow a uniform distribution.  Let the random variable G measure the duration of a randomly selected Kunkel game night. State the distribution of the random variable G. Compute the probability that the Kunkel's game night this weekend lasts between 100 minutes and 120 minutes.   True or False:  P(G=120)=0.011?

The Kunkel's host a game night every weekend.  The duration of these game nights, typically, last between 90 minutes and 180 minutes.  Assume the durations follow a uniform distribution.  Let the random variable G measure the duration of a randomly selected Kunkel game night.

State the distribution of the random variable G.

Compute the probability that the Kunkel's game night this weekend lasts between 100 minutes and 120 minutes.  

True or False:  P(G=120)=0.011?
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given: 

The duration of these game nights, typically, last between 90 minutes and 180 minutes

the durations follow a uniform distribution. 

the random variable G measure the duration of a randomly selected Kunkel game night.

We have to state, the distribution of the random variable G.

We have to compute probability that the Kunkel's game night this weekend lasts between 100 minutes and 120 minutes.  

And to check,True or False:  P(G=120)=0.011?
