Prove De Morgan’s laws (Theorem 1.4.9).
Suppose that \({X_1},....,{X_{10}}\)form a random sample from a normal distribution for which both the mean and the variance are unknown. Construct a statistic that does not depend on any unknown parameters and has the \(F\)distribution with three and five degrees of freedom.
Suppose that n people are seated in a random manner in a row of n theatre seats. What is the probability that two particular people A and B will be seated next to each other?
Let S be a given sample space and let \({A_1},{A_2},.....\) bean infinite sequence of events. For \(n = 1,2,..........\), let \({B_n} = \bigcup\limits_{i = n}^\infty {{A_i}} \)and let \({C_n} = \bigcap\limits_{i = n}^\infty {{A_i}} \)
a. Show that \({B_1} \supset {B_2} \supset \ldots \ldots \) and that \({C_1} \subset {C_2} \subset \ldots \ldots \).
b. Show that an outcome in S belongs to the event\(\bigcap\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {{B_n}} \) if and only if it belongs toan infinite number of the events \({A_1},{A_2},.....\).
c. Show that an outcome in S belongs to the event \(\bigcup\limits_{n = 1}^\infty {{C_n}} \)if and only if it belongs to all the events\({A_1},{A_2},.....\) except possibly a finite number of those events.
Assuming that A and B are independent events, prove that the events Ac and Bc are also independent.
