Step by step solution

01

Definition of probability

the proportion of the total number of conceivable outcomes to the number of options in an exhaustive collection of equally likely outcomes that cause a given occurrence.

02

Calculating the joint marginal density function of \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{and}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{3}}}\)alone

We have pdf from the example, thus the combined marginal density function of \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{and}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{3}}}\)is

\({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{and}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{3}}}\)have a joint marginal density function.

03

Calculating the probability that rocks of types \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{and}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{3}}}\)together make up at most \({\rm{50\% }}\)of the sample

Using marginal pdf obtained in, we need to find the probability of an occurrence where the sum of the random variables $X 1$ and $X 2$ is less than or equal to\(0.5\) (a). Therefore

(1): all integrals are straightforward. We will not go over all of the algebra (there is a lot of algebra) that goes into calculations.

04

Calculating the marginal pdf of \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}\) alone.

For the continuous random variable \({\rm{X}}\), the marginal probability density function is

\({{\rm{f}}_{\rm{X}}}{\rm{(x) = \`o }}_{{\rm{ - 楼}}}^{\rm{楼}}{\rm{nf(x,y)dy,}}\;\;\;{\rm{\;for\; - 楼 < x < 楼}}\)

The marginal pdf obtained in (a) will be used. The following statement is correct:

To conclude, the \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}\)marginal pdf is

\({\rm{f}}\left( {{{\rm{x}}_{\rm{1}}}} \right){\rm{ = }}\left\{ {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{{\rm{18}}{{\rm{x}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{ - 48x}}_{\rm{1}}^{\rm{2}}{\rm{ + 36x}}_{\rm{1}}^{\rm{3}}{\rm{ - 6x}}_{\rm{1}}^{\rm{5}}{\rm{,0拢}}{{\rm{x}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{拢1}}}\\{{\rm{ ,\;otherwise\;}}}\end{aligned}} \right.\)

Let \({\rm{X}}\)and \({\rm{Y}}\)be independent standard normal random variables, and define a new rv by \({\rm{U = }}{\rm{.6X + }}{\rm{.8Y}}\).

a. \({\rm{Determine\;Corr(X,U)}}\)

b. How would you alter \({\rm{U}}\)to obtain \({\rm{Corr(X,U) = \rho }}\)for a specified value of \({\rm{\rho ?}}\)

The National Health Statistics Reports dated Oct. \({\rm{22, 2008}}\), stated that for a sample size of \({\rm{277 18 - }}\)year-old American males, the sample mean waist circumference was \({\rm{86}}{\rm{.3cm}}\). A somewhat complicated method was used to estimate various population percentiles, resulting in the following values:

a. Is it plausible that the waist size distribution is at least approximately normal? Explain your reasoning. If your answer is no, conjecture the shape of the population distribution.

b. Suppose that the population mean waist size is \({\rm{85cm}}\)and that the population standard deviation is \({\rm{15cm}}\). How likely is it that a random sample of \({\rm{277}}\) individuals will result in a sample mean waist size of at least \({\rm{86}}{\rm{.3cm}}\)?

c. Referring back to (b), suppose now that the population mean waist size in \({\rm{82cm}}\).Now what is the (approximate) probability that the sample mean will be at least \({\rm{86}}{\rm{.3cm}}\)? In light of this calculation, do you think that \({\rm{82cm}}\)is a reasonable value for \({\rm{\mu }}\)?

Suppose a randomly chosen individual's verbal score \({\rm{X}}\)and quantitative score \({\rm{Y}}\)on a nationally administered aptitude examination have a joint pdf

\({\rm{f(x,y) = }}\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\frac{{\rm{2}}}{{\rm{5}}}{\rm{(2x + 3y)}}}&{{\rm{0拢 x拢 1,0拢 y拢 1}}}\\{\rm{0}}&{{\rm{ otherwise }}}\end{array}} \right.\)

You are asked to provide a prediction \({\rm{t}}\)of the individual's total score\({\rm{X + Y}}\). The error of prediction is the mean squared error\({\rm{E}}\left( {{{{\rm{(X + Y - t)}}}^{\rm{2}}}} \right)\). What value of \({\rm{t}}\)minimizes the error of prediction?

Suppose the sediment density (g/cm) of a randomly selected specimen from a certain region is normally distributed with mean \({\rm{2}}{\rm{.65 }}\)and standard deviation \({\rm{.85}}\) (suggested in 鈥淢odeling Sediment and Water Column Interactions for Hydrophobic Pollutants,鈥 Water Research, \({\rm{1984: 1164 - 1174 }}\)).

a. If a random sample of \({\rm{25}}\)specimens is selected, what is the probability that the sample average sediment density is at most \({\rm{3}}{\rm{.00 }}\)? Between \({\rm{2}}{\rm{.65 }}\)and \({\rm{3}}{\rm{.00 }}\)?

b. How large a sample size would be required to ensure that the first probability in part (a) is at least \({\rm{.99}}\)?

Let \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{,}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{2}}}{\rm{, \ldots ,}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{n}}}\)be random variables denoting \({\rm{X}}\)independent bids for an item that is for sale. Suppose each \({\rm{X}}\)is uniformly distributed on the interval \({\rm{(100,200)}}\).If the seller sells to the highest bidder, how much can he expect to earn on the sale? (Hint: Let \({\rm{Y = max}}\left( {{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{1}}}{\rm{,}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{2}}}{\rm{, \ldots ,}}{{\rm{X}}_{\rm{n}}}} \right)\).First find \({{\rm{F}}_{\rm{Y}}}{\rm{(y)}}\)by noting that \({\rm{Y}}\)iff each \({{\rm{X}}_{\rm{i}}}\)is \({\rm{y}}\). Then obtain the pdf and \({\rm{E(Y)}}\).
