I found the MGF of X of the Uniform(-5,5) random variable to be 1/(10t)(e^(5t)-e^(-5t)) and I was wondering if you could help me calculate the expectation and variance of Y, given X is independent and Y = X1+X2+X3X4+X5 . I got the expectation and variance of Y to both be zero after differentiating the MGF and subtituitng t=0,but i dont think thats correct. Please could you help,thanks
If the correlation coefficient (r) is equal to 1.00, then all the data points must fall exactly on a straight line with a slope that equals 1.00. O all the data points must fall exactly on a straight line with a negative slope. O all the data points must fall exactly on a straight line with a positive slope. all the data points must fall exactly on a horizontal straight line with a zero slope.

An ordinary (fair) coin is tossed 3 times. Outcomes are thus triple of “heads” (h) and tails (t) which we write hth, ttt, etc. For each outcome, let R be the random variable counting the number of tails in each outcome. For example, if the outcome is hht, then R (hht)=1. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of R as follows X=6R-2R^2-1. The values of X are given in the table below. A) Calculate the values of the probability distribution function of X, i.e. the function Px. First, fill in the first row with the values X. Then fill in the appropriate probability in the second row.
