After transition from the random variable T = { t } to the value X = { x }:
x 2 = ( t 2 - T 0 ) / S ; x 1 = ( t 1 - T 0 ) / S ,
this leads to

Since [Φ( x )( x 2 )-Φ( x )( x 1 )] < 1, then c > 1, so that f ( t ) > f ( t ). Curve
f ( t ) is higher than f ( t ), since the areas under the curves f ( t ) and f ( t ) are
the same and equal to 1 (Fig. 1.18):
