Math Problem Statement
Solution
The question in the image asks about probabilities based on the uniform distribution of a random variable over the interval [0, 2].
The uniform distribution over [0, 2] means that the probability density function (PDF) is constant across this interval. Specifically, the PDF is for .
Now let's solve each probability:
1.
This is the probability that takes a value greater than 1.46. For a uniform distribution, this probability is simply the fraction of the remaining interval after 1.46:
2.
This is the probability that takes a value less than 0.08. Again, for a uniform distribution, this probability is proportional to the length of the interval from 0 to 0.08:
Therefore, the answers are:
