if X~ Uniform distribution and f(x)= 1/(b-a) ; a<X<b mean =6, variance= 4/3 find a,b. Select one: a,b=4,8 a,b=8,4 a,b=2,10 a,b=10,2

Step 1
So we can set up the equation: (a+b)/2 = 6 Multiplying both sides by 2, we get: a + b = 12 Show more…

3.30. Suppose a random variable X has a uniform distribution over [a.b]; where 0<a<b. If the mean value of Xis 5 and variance is 3/4. what are the val- ues of a and b2
Pritesh R.
The mean and the standard deviation for the discrete uniform distribution: Suppose X is a discrete uniform random variable on the consecutive integers a, a + 1, a + 2, ..., b for a ≤ b. Then, the mean (μ) is given by μ = (b + a) / 2 and the variance (σ^2) is given by σ^2 = ((b - a + 1)^2 - 1) / 12.
