Answer:

0.1667

Explanation:

You want the height of a uniform probability density function with bounds -2 and +4.

PDF

The area under a probability density function (PDF) graph is 1. For a rectangular graph of width 4 -(-2) = 6, the height must be 1/6 ≈ 0.1667.

The height of the density function is about 0.1667.
