1. Let X be a random variable having pdf f(x) = 6x(1 – x) for 0 < I < 1 and 0 elsewhere. Compute the mean and variance of X. 2. Let X1, X2,..., X, be independent random variables having the same distribution as the variable from problem 1, and let X, = (X1+ ·.+Xn). Part a: Compute the mean and variance of X, (your answer will depend on n). Part b: If I didn't assume the variables were independent, would the calculation in part a still work? Or would at least part of it still work? 3. Suppose that X and Y are both independent variables, and that each has mean 2 and variance 3.

Suppose the conditional mean function is Y = Bo + BiX + B2X² + B3X3 + U %3D where E[U]X]3D0. By mistake, a researcher omitted X^2 and X^3 terms in the regression and ran regression of Y on X and an intercept only. It turns out that covariance between X and B2X2 + B3X° is nonzero. Is the OLS estimator researcher computed consistent for beta 1? Yes, since the omitted variables are just functions of X. Yes, since the covariance between X and B2X2 + B3X is nonzero No, since the covariance between X and B2X4 + B3X° is nonzero No, since the omitted variables are negligibly small.
