For mated pairs of gallinules (type of water bird), let X equal the weight in grams of the male and Y the weight in grams of the female. Assume that X and Y have a bivariate normal distribution with #x = 415, o = 611, y = 347 and o=689. The correlation coefficient between X and Y is p = -0.25. (b) Determine the marginal distributions of X and then of Y. (c) Find the conditional distribution of Y|X = x. (d) Find E(Y|X = z) and Var(Y|X = x).
A professor grades on a curve by assigning C's to all scores from u- ; to u+%, B's to all scores from i+% to µ+ , and D's to all scores from u – * to µ – 5. Everyone who scores below a D gets an F, and everyone who scores above a B gets an A. a. If the scores are normally distributed with mean u and variance o², what percentage of students will receive each grade? Hint: convert to z-scores and use pnorm() to find probabilities (percentages) b. If the scores are uniformly distributed (continuous) from 0 to 100 what percentage will receive each grade? Hint: first determine the values of u and o for this distribution
A person arrives at the side of a single lane, one way street as a car passes by. Consider this time as time 0. There is no traffic lights and no pedestrian lanes in the nearby area. He stands there watching cars pass by. The number of cars to pass by within a period of time cane be modeled using a poison distribution. Suppose the cars pass by the person at a rate of 4.5 cars per minute. Assume that the cars pass by instantaneously. what is the probability that no cars pass by him within a 2 minute window b) if the person had to guess how many cars would pass by in the next five minutes, what number should he guess? Why? c) what is the distribution for the time until the first car passes by him(time is continuous). What is the expected time until the first car passes by him?

Past research has indicated that the average age of death row inmates is 41 years old. researcher would like to determine if the average age has changed. She randomly selects 50 death row inma s and ds their average age to be 37 years old. The hypothesis the statistician wants to test is: a. Ho: µ=37 vs_ Ha: µ ± 41. b. Ho: µ=41 vs Ha: µ< 41.
