a. Normal distribution
b. Uniform distribution
c. Binomial distribution
d. Discrete probability distributi

Answer 1

b. Uniform distribution

Explanation:

Whenever each outcome has a total probability, we are working with an uniform distribution probability.

In this case, each outcome is between is between 5 to 6 minutes.

So, the correct answer is:

b. Uniform distribution
