Question 2

Company experts believe the development time will fall into the range of 5 to 9 months. They believe the probabilities of the extremes (5 and 9 months) are both 10, and the probabilities will vary linearly from those endpoints to a most likely value at 7 months.

Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

This is a general discrete distribution. We just have to choose the probabilities of the values 5 to 9 so that they increase and then decrease linearly, and add up to 1: P(5)=0.1, P(6)=0.225, P(7)=0.35, P(=0.225, P(9)=0.1.
