Which type of distribution does the graph illustrate?

Suppose the time it takes a student to finish a quiz is uniformly distributed between six and 15 minutes, inclusive. Let $X =$ the time, in minutes, it takes a student to finish a quiz. Then $X ~ U (6, 15)$ Find the probability that a randomly selected student needs at least eight minutes to complete the quiz. Then find the probability that a different student needs at least eight minutes to finish the quiz given that she has already taken more than seven minutes.
