The moment generating function can be used to find the mean and variance of the normal distribution. Use derivatives of Mx(t) to verify that E(X) = µ and V(X) = 0².
Answer part a of the following question. Show work. Let Y > 0 be a continuous random variable representing time from regimen start to bone-marrow transplant. Everyone does not survive long enough to get the transplant. Let X > 0 be a continuous random variable representing time from regimen start to death. We can assume X ⊥ Y and model time to death as X ∼ Exp(rate = θ) and time to transplant as Y ∼ Exp(rate = µ). Where Exp(rate = λ) denotes the exponential distribution with density f(z | λ) = λe−λz for z > 0 and 0 elsewhere - with λ > 0. a.) Compute the probability that a patient receives transplant before they pass away (die) by integrating over the joint density fxy.

Total plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person undergoing surgery. Plasma volume is influenced by the overall health and physical activity of an individual. Suppose that a random sample of 43 male firefighters are tested and that they have a plasma volume sample mean of x = 37.5 ml/kg (milliliters plasma per kilogram body weight). Assume that σ = 7.50 ml/kg for the distribution of blood plasma. (a) Find a 99% confidence interval for the population mean blood plasma volume in male firefighters. What is the margin of error?

Let X be a normal random variable with mean 85 and a variance of 25 (i.e., X ∼ N (85, 25)). step1: Let M = aX + b for some constants a, b not equal to 0. Write an expression for the pdf of M . step 2: Suppose that X represents an approximate distribution of the final scores in a certain math course (ignore the fact that this approximation can technically have scores that are greater than 100 or less than 0). If the teacher were to curve the scores, it means he would determine a function to apply to the scores to achieve a desired distribution (assume an affine function in this case, as in the previous part). Suppose he wants the scores to be normally distributed with mean 80 and a standard deviation of 4. What should he choose for a and b? What students would see their score lowered, and what students would see their score increased?
