Suppose that you wish to find $P ( - 2

Question

Suppose that you wish to find $P ( - 2 < x < 2 )$ for a continuous uniform distribution having a minimum of  -3  and a maximum of 3 . If you incorrectly assume that the distribution is normal instead of uniform, will your answer be too big, too small, or will you still obtain the correct answer? Explain your thinking.
