5. Let X denote the number of bricks a bricklayer will lay in an hour and assume that X takes val-
ues in the range 150 to 200 inclusively with equal probability (i.e. has a discrete uniform dis-
tribution). If a certain project is 170 bricks short of completion and a further project is waiting
to be started as soon as this one is finished, what is the probability that:
a. The bricklayer will start the second project within the hour?
b. More than 25 bricks will have been laid on the second project at the end of the next hour?
c. The first project will be more than ten bricks short of completion at the end of the next
hour?
d. The bricklayer will lay exactly 175 bricks during the next hour?
How do I solve this using uniform distribution?
