Let x denote the amount of gravel sold (in tons) during a randomly selected week at a particular sales facility. Suppose that the density curve has height f(x) above the value x where x) - 2(1 - x) Osxs1 otherwise. The density curve (the graph of f(x)) is shown in the following figure. Density Gravel (tons) Use the fact that the area of a triangle -(base)(height) to calculate each of the probabilities. (Hìnt: Drawing a picture and shading the appropriate area will help.) (a) The probability that gravel sold exceeds ton. (b) The probabllity that gravel sold is at least ton. 2.
