Java: random integer with non-uniform distribution

Question

How can I create a random integer n in Java, between 1 and k with a "linear descending distribution", i.e. 1 is most likely, 2 is less likely, 3 less likely, ..., k least likely, and the probabilities descend linearly, like this:

I know that there are dosens of threads on this topic already, and I apologize for making a new one, but I can't seem to be able to create what I need from them. I know that using import java.util.*;, the code

Random r=new Random();
int n=r.nextInt(k)+1;

creates a random integer between 1 and k, distributed uniformly.

GENERALIZATION: Any hints for creating an arbitrarily distributed integer, i.e. f(n)=some function, P(n)=f(n)/(f(1)+...+f(k))), would also be appreciated, for example: .
