A packing plant uses a 969 feet conveyor belt to move filled cans to the crating area. When a can falls off of the belt it is equally likely to do so at any point along the route. Let X be the distance, in feet, from the start of the belt to the point where the next can falls off of the belt. Assuming that X has a uniform distribution, find a formula for fX(x) and use this to compute the probability that the can falls off at a point between 321 feet and 365 feet from the start of the belt. (Type your answer as 99.99% )
