Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The probability that a randomly selected observation exceeds 26 can be found by calculating the area under the uniform distribution curve from 26 to 90. Since the total range is from 10 to 90, the length of the interval is 80. The interval from 26 to 90 has a length of 64. Therefore, the probability is 64/80 = 0.8.
