The weight of a chocolate bar is 4.4 ounces, but can vary. Let W be a random variable that represents the weight of a chocolate bar. The probability density function of Wis given below. If the shaded portion of the graph of the continuous probability density function below is 0.42739, what is the probability that a chocolate bar is at least 4 ounces, but no more than 7 ounces?

Ans) 42.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

For a continuous probability distribution, a curve known as probability density function contains information about these probabilities.

in the given range -

The probability that a continuous random variable = equal to the area under the probability density function curve

The probability that the value of a random variable is equal to 'something' is 1.

As per the diagram,

Weight of chocolate bar between 4 ounces and 7 ounces is highlighted in the blue part. That area is said to be 0.42739 and the total area under the curve is 1.

Hence required probability

=0.42739/1=0.42739

Ans) 42.7%
