Answer 1

@satellite73 can you help me

Answer 2

hello again

Answer 3

same book?

Answer 4

hi thank you for replying fast :)

Answer 5

yup

Answer 6

just the next lesson

Answer 7

4 and 14?

Answer 8

yup

Answer 9

ok did you do the first 3? height of distribution?

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

did you get \(\frac{1}{3}\)?

Answer 12

shouldnt it be 2/3?

Answer 13

for the height of the distribution? (actually that is question two)

Answer 14

the height should be \(\frac{1}{3}\) since the base is \(3\) units long and the area is \(1\)

Answer 15

oh ok thank you

Answer 16

but actually for the uniform distribution, although you can use the height (that is why they asked it first) you don't really need to
what is the length from \(1.5\) to \(3\)? i .e. what is \(3-.15\)

Answer 17

oops i meant \(3-1.5\)

Answer 18

ok so 3/2 then?

Answer 19

that is the answer to the question i asked yes, but that is not the answer to the question in the book

Answer 20

oh ok yeah I was wondering that because it didnt seem correct since the bigger number is on top

Answer 21

first of 3/2 is not a probability, it is bigger than one
the total length from 1 to 4 is 3

Answer 22

so your answer is \[\frac{1.5}{3}\]

Answer 23

so 0.5 or 1/2?

Answer 24

just the length of the line segment divided by the total length of the line

Answer 25

yes \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Answer 26

which just says the distance from \(1.5\) to \(3\) is half of the distance from \(1\) to \(4\)

Answer 27

you can do it in terms of areas as well, but since the height is the same, the area will be one half the total area

Answer 28

height is \(\frac{1}{3}\) base is \(\frac{3}{2}\) area is \[\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{3}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\]

Answer 29

so 0.5/2?

Answer 30

no just one half

Answer 31

or \(.5\) if you prefer

Answer 32

oh ok thank you :)

Answer 33

i think i might have confused you
it is
a) the length of the interval divided by the total length or
b) the area of the region
they are the same

Answer 34

for the next one, ignore the part about when the animal is weighed, it makes no difference
