Suppose the time to process a loan application follows a uniform distribution over the range 7 to 13 days. What is the probability that a randomly selected loan application takes longer than 9 days to process?

Answer:

The probability that the loan process will take longer than 9 days is 0.6667.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the application takes more than 9 days is given as [tex]P(x=9)=\dfrac{x_{max}-x}{x_{max}-x_{min}}[/tex]

Here

x_max=13

x_min=7

x=9 so the value is given as

[tex]P(x=9)=\dfrac{x_{max}-x}{x_{max}-x_{min}}\\P(x=9)=\dfrac{13-9}{13-7}\\P(x=9)=0.6667[/tex]

So the probability that the loan process will take longer than 9 days is 0.6667.

The probability an application selected randomly takes longer than 9 days is 0.6

Data;

  • Range = 7 to 13 days

Uniform Distribution

Assuming the time to process a loan application follows a uniform distribution over the range 7 to 13 days.

The probability an application selected randomly takes longer than 9 days will be

[tex]P = p[x > 9]\\P = \frac{13 - 9}{13- 7} =\frac{2}{3} = 0.6[/tex]

The probability an application selected randomly takes longer than 9 days is 0.6
