Chapter 5, Problem 5.5TI
Suppose the time it takes a student to finish a quiz is uniformly distributed between six and 15 minutes, Inclusive. Let X = the time, in minutes, It takes a student to finish a quiz. Then X ~U (6, 15).
Find the probability that a randomly selected student needs at least eight minutes to complete the quiz. Then find the probability that a different student needs at least eight minutes to finish the quiz given that she has already taken more than seven minutes.
