Applicants for a job are uniformly distributed in age between 25 and 50. What is the probability that an applicant will be less than age 30?

Solution

Applicants for a job are uniformly distributed in age between 25 and 50

so, cdf = (x-25)/(50-25)

cdf = (x-25)/25

Now,

What is the probability that an applicant will be less than age 30?

Prob = (30-25)/25 = 5/25

Prob. = 1/5

Prob. = 0.2
