Question

If a vehicle is carrying hazardous materials, the driver must examine the tires:

A) Every 50 miles
B) Every 150 miles
C) At the beginning of the trip only
D) Whenever the driver feels it is necessary

Answer 1

The correct answer to the tire examination frequency for a vehicle carrying hazardous materials is not provided among the options. For the uniform distribution probability questions, calculations are based on the range values and principles of uniform distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to vehicles carrying hazardous materials, there are specific safety regulations that must be followed to ensure the safety of the driver and others on the road. According to the guidelines, the correct answer to how often a driver must check the tires would be specific to the regulations of the transport of hazardous materials and not included in the options provided. It follows that a more detailed review of these regulations should be performed to provide the accurate information, as this answer involves compliance with legal road safety standards.

For the questions regarding probability and distribution:

1. To find the probability that a truck driver goes more than 650 miles in a day, subtract the probability of the driver going up to 650 miles from 1, since it's a uniform distribution.
2. To find the probability that the truck driver goes between 400 and 650 miles in a day, subtract the probability of going up to 400 miles from the probability of up to 650 miles.
3. To find the minimum distance the truck driver travels on the 10 percent of days with the highest mileage, determine the 90th percentile for the uniform distribution.
