If Xhas the Poisson distribution with P(X=1) = 2P(X=2), then P(X ≥ 2) is approximately:
Many people believe that the daily change in price of a company's stock in the stock market is a random variable with mean 0 and variance o² during the middle 2 months between 2 earning report dates when there is not much news released. That is, if Yn represents the closing price of the stock on the nth trading day of that period, then Yn = Yn-1+Xn, for 1 ≤ n ≤ 60, where X₁, X2,..., X60 are independent and identically distributed random variables with mean 0 and variance o². Suppose that the stock price at the beginning of the 2-month period is 100. If o = 2, what is the approximate probability that the stock's closing price on the 30th trading day will exceed 110, i.e., what is P(Y30 > 110)

Let Y be the first order statistic and let Y be the third order statistic. Then, Select one: O a. Y is sufficient and Y is sufficient. O b. Y is sufficient and Y is not sufficient. O c. Y is not sufficient and Y, is not sufficient. O d. Y, is not sufficient and Y, is sufficient.

A certain process for producing an industrial chemical yields a product containing two predominant types of impurities. For a certain volume of sample from this process, let X1 denote the proportion of impurities in the sample and let X2 denote the proportion of type I impurity among all impurities found. Suppose the joint distribution of X1 and X2, after investigation of many such samples, can be adequately modeled by the following function: (see picture) a. Calculate the probability that X1 is less than 0.5 and that X2 is between 0.4 and 0.7. b. Show that these random variables are independent.
3. Suppose that a random variable X has a continuous distribution for which the p.d.f. is as follows: > 0, x- for x > f (x) = otherwise. Determine all the medians of this distribution.
