Calculating Probability DensityIn a uniform PDF, all the possible values have the same probability density. The figure below shows such a uniform PDF, where the possible values are from 0 to 10. For this graph, what is the value of the probability density from X = 0 to X = 10?
Question
Calculating Probability DensityIn a uniform PDF, all the possible values have the same probability density. The figure below shows such a uniform PDF, where the possible values are from 0 to 10. For this graph, what is the value of the probability density from X = 0 to X = 10?
Solution
The probability density function (PDF) for a uniform distribution is 1/(b-a), where a and b are the minimum and maximum values of the distribution respectively.
In this case, a = 0 and b = 10.
So, the PDF is 1/(10-0) = 1/10 = 0.1.
Therefore, the value of the probability density from X = 0 to X = 10 is 0.1.
