Step 1: Given information

The age of cars in the staff parking lot of a suburban college is uniformly distributed from six months (0.5 years) to 9.5 years.

Step 2: Solution

Uniform distribution the interval of values for $X$ will be,

$= a < x < b$

So the Following values are know as;

$a = 0.5$

$b = 9.5$

the interval of values for $X$ in this problem will be,

$= 0.5 < x < 9.5$
