Let \(X_{1}\) and \(X_{2}\) have a trinomial distribution with parameters \(n, p_{1}, p_{2}\). (a) What is the distribution of \(Y=X_{1}+X_{2} ?\) (b) From the equality \(\sigma_{Y}^{2}=\sigma_{1}^{2}+\sigma_{2}^{2}+2 \rho \sigma_{1} \sigma_{2}\), once again determine the correlation coefficient \(\rho\) of \(X_{1}\) and \(X_{2}\)
Let \(X_{1}\) and \(X_{2}\) be independent random variables with nonzero variances. Find the correlation coefficient of \(Y=X_{1} X_{2}\) and \(X_{1}\) in terms of the means and variances of \(X_{1}\) and \(X_{2}\).
Forty-eight measurements are recorded to several decimal places. Each of these 48 numbers is rounded off to the nearest integer. The sum of the original 48 numbers is approximated by the sum of these integers. If we assume that the errors made by rounding off are iid and have a uniform distribution over the interval \(\left(-\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2}\right)\), compute approximately the probability that the sum of the integers is within two units of the true sum.
Let \(X\) be \(\chi^{2}(50)\). Approximate \(P(40
