Asked by admin @ in Mathematics viewed by 273 People


A random variable X follows the continuous uniform distribution with a lower bound of −4 and an upper bound of 18. a. What is the height of the density function f(x)

Answered by admin @



Answer:

The  height of the density function is \frac{1}{22}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A random variable X follows the continuous uniform distribution with a lower bound of −4 and an upper bound of 18.

To find : What is the height of the density function f(x)?

Solution :

According to question,

The height of the density function is given by,

f(X)=\frac{1}{b-a}

Where, a is the lower bound a=-4

b is the upper bound b=18

Substitute the value in the formula,

f(X)=\frac{1}{18-(-4)}

f(X)=\frac{1}{18+4}

f(X)=\frac{1}{22}

Therefore, The  height of the density function is \frac{1}{22}
