A group of 20 people consisting of 10 men and 10 women is randomly arranged into 10 pairs of 2 each. Compute the expectation and variance of the number of pairs that consist of a man and a woman. Now suppose the 20 people consist of 10 married couples. Compute the mean and variance of the number of married couples that are paired together.
Show how to compute from the joint moment generating function of and .
Let be a sequence of independent and identically distributed continuous random variables. Let be such that
That is, is the point at which the sequence stops decreasing. Show that .
Hint: First find .
The joint density of and is given by
Compute .
