Question:

Suppose x is a random variable best described by a uniform probability distribution with c = 20 and d = 45.

a. Find f1x2.

b. Find the mean and standard deviation of x.

c. Graph f1x2 and locate m and the interval m { 2s on the graph. Note that the probability that x assumes a value within the interval m { 2s is equal to 1.
