A certain mutual fund invests in both U.S. and foreign markets. Let x a random variable that represents the monthly percentage return for the fund. Assume x has mean u = 1.9% and standard deviation o = 0.3%. (a) The fund has over 175 stocks that combine together to give the overall monthly percentage return x. We can consider the monthly return of the stocks in the fund to be a sample from the population of monthly returns of all world stocks. Then we see that the overall monthly return x for the fund is itself an average return computed using all 175 stocks in the fund. Why would this indicate that x has an approximately normal distribution? Explain. Hint: See the discussion after Theorem 6.2. The random variable -Select-v is a mean of a sample size n = 175. By the -Select- v, the -Select- distribution is approximately normal. (b) After 6 months, what is the probability that thẹ average monthly percentage return x will be between 1% and 2%? Hint: See Theorem 6.1, and assume that x has…

For a random variable, its hazard function also referred to as the instantaneous failure rate is defined as the instantaneous risk (conditional probabilty) that an event of interest will happen in a narrow span of time duration. For a discrete random variable X, its hazard function is defined by the formula hX(k) =P(X=k+ 1|X > k) =pX(k)1−FX(k). For a Poisson distribution with λ= 4.2, find hX(k) and use R to plot the hazard function.
