plot() initiates a completely new plot, and therefore erases what was there before. Use lines(), or points(), instead: x <- seq(1,40,1) y <- 2*x+1+5*rnorm(length(x)) hist(y,freq = FALSE) lines(density(y)) lines() *adds* extra elements (line segments) to an *existing* plot. See ?plot abd ?lines (and also ?points) for more explanation.
