The bus you take every morning always arrives anywhere from 2 minutes early to 15 minutes late and it is equally likely that it arrives during any of those minutes. Suppose that you arrive at the bus stop five minutes early. What is the probability that the bus arrives after you get to the bus stop?

I'm having trouble figuring this out. I've already drawn the graph, but it's worded a little weird for me to understand.

100% because you get there 5 minutes early and the bus can only be 2 minutes early and after that so 100% chance you get the bus.
