QUESTION 2 Delta Airlines quotes a flight time of 4 hours, 3 minutes for a particular flight. Suppose we believe that actual flight times are uniformly distributed between 4 hours and 4 hours, 12 minutes. (a) Show the graph of the probability density function for flight time. The graph has a shaded area. The horizontal axis is labeled: x with the title: Flight Time in Minutes and has tickmarks labeled: 234, 240, 246, 252. The vertical axis is labeled: f(x), and has tickmarks labeled: 1/12, 1/6, 1/4. The shaded area is the region bounded by the horizontal axis and the following line segments. A 1/12 unit long vertical line segment begins at 240 on the horizontal axis. A 1/12 unit long vertical line segment begins at 252 on the horizontal axis. A 12 unit long horizontal line segment begins at the tickmark labeled 240 on the horizontal axis and the tickmark labeled 1/12 on the vertical axis. This line segment connects the two vertical line segments. The graph has a shaded…
