Many random number generators allow users to specify the range of the random numbers to be produced. Suppose that you specify that the range is to be all numbers between 0 and 2. Call the random number generated Y. Then the density curve of the random variable Y has constant height between 0 and 2, and height 0 elsewhere.

I have no clue it doesnt say

What is the height of the density curve between 0 and 2? (Enter your answer to two decimal places.) sorry heres the question

tkhunny · Answer

Well, there you go.  The probability must add up to 1 (one).  If it is on [0,2], how high does it have to be to total one (1)?

What @tkhunny is saying is that imagine you had a rectangle on an xy axis like so

|dw:1476074395087:dw|

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

The rectangle starts at x = 0 and ends at x = 2
