Chapter 5: Q16E (page 316)

Suppose that the joint p.d.f. of two random variablesXandYis

\[f\left( {x,y} \right) = \frac{1}{{2\pi }}{e^{ - \frac{1}{2}\left( {{x^2} + {y^2}} \right)}}; - \infty < x < \infty , - \infty < y < \infty \]

Find\[\Pr \left( { - \sqrt 2 < x + y < 2\sqrt 2 } \right)\].

Short Answer

Expert verified

\[P\left( { - \sqrt 2 < X + Y < 2\sqrt 2 } \right) = 0.8186\]

Step by step solution

01

Given information

X and Y are both random variables.

02

Calculate the probability 

X + Y has a normal distribution.

\[\begin{array}{l}E\left( {X + Y} \right) = 0 + 0 = 0\\V\left( {X + Y} \right) = 1 + 1 = 2\end{array}\]

Z will have standard normal distribution if

\[\begin{array}{c}Z = \frac{{\left( {X + Y} \right) - 0}}{{\sqrt 2 }}\\ = \frac{{\left( {X + Y} \right)}}{{\sqrt 2 }}\end{array}\]

Then,

\[\begin{array}{c}P\left( { - \sqrt 2 < X + Y < 2\sqrt 2 } \right) = P\left( { - 1 < Z < 2} \right)\\ = P\left( {Z < 2} \right) - P\left( {Z < - 1} \right)\\ = \Phi \left( 2 \right) - \Phi \left( { - 1} \right)\\ = \Phi \left( 2 \right) - 1 + \Phi \left( 1 \right)\\ = 0.8186\end{array}\]

Hence, \[P\left( { - \sqrt 2 < X + Y < 2\sqrt 2 } \right) = 0.8186\].

In Exercise 5, let \({{\bf{X}}_{\bf{3}}}\) denote the number of juniors in the random sample of 15 students and the number of seniors in the sample. Find the value of \({\bf{E}}\left( {{{\bf{X}}_{\bf{3}}} - {{\bf{X}}_{\bf{4}}}} \right)\) and the value of \({\bf{Var}}\left( {{{\bf{X}}_{\bf{3}}} - {{\bf{X}}_{\bf{4}}}} \right)\)

Suppose that a random sample of 16 observations is drawn from the normal distribution with a mean \({\bf{\mu }}\) and standard deviation of 12 and that independently another random sample of 25 observations is drawn from the normal distribution with the same mean \({\bf{\mu }}\) and standard deviation of 20. Let \(\overline {\bf{X}} \,\,{\bf{and}}\,\,\overline {\bf{Y}} \) denote the sample means of the two samples. Evaluate \({\bf{Pr}}\left( {\left| {\overline {\bf{x}} - \overline {\bf{y}} } \right|{\bf{ < 5}}} \right)\).

Suppose that seven balls are selected at random withoutreplacement from a box containing five red balls and ten blue balls. If \(\overline X \) denotes the proportion of red balls in the sample, what are the mean and the variance of \(\overline X \) ?

Suppose that the diameters of the bolts in a large box follow a normal distribution with a mean of 2 centimeters and a standard deviation of 0.03 centimeters. Also, suppose that the diameters of the holes in the nuts in another large box follow the normal distribution with a mean of 2.02 centimeters and a standard deviation of 0.04 centimeters. A bolt and a nut will fit together if the diameter of the hole in the nut is greater than the diameter of the bolt, and the difference between these diameters is not greater than 0.05 centimeter. If a bolt and a nut are selected at random, what is the probability that they will fit together?
