General question on Distribution

Discussion in 'CT8' started by Balvinder Singh, Aug 12, 2017.

  1. Is the below mentioned valid for a Uniform distribution?

    U(0,50) = 50U(0/50, 50/50) = 50U(0, 1)

    Thanks

    Yes - if you take a sample from U(0,1) and multiply each value by 50, you get a sample from U(0,50).

    U(0,50) and 50U(0,1) have the same properties, ie give the same values for probabilities, means, variances.
