Answer: 1/3
Explanation:
Here is the complete question:
machine is set to pump cleanser into a process at the rate of 9 gallons per minute. Upon inspection, it is learned that the machine actually pumps cleanser at a rate described by the uniform distribution over the interval 8.5 to 11.5 gallons per minute. Find the probability that between 9.0 gallons and 10.0 gallons are pumped during a randomly selected minute.
The Probability of the above question will be calculated as:
= (10-9) / (11.5 - 8.5)
= 1/3
The above is the easier way to solve this
