Problem
As in Exercise 9, assume that we have a sequence of occurrences, but now assume that the time X between occurrences is uniformly distributed between 5 and 15. As before, you come upon this system at time 100, and wait until the next occurrence. Make a conjecture concerning how long, on the average, you will have to wait. Write a program to see if your conjecture is right.
