Alex decides to sell his old guitar, and sequentially receives bids from potential buyers. The minimum price that he will accept to sell his guitar for is £500. Let {Xn, n ≥ 0} denote the sequence of independent and identically distributed bids that Alex receives, and assume that each Xn has the following probability density functionfX(x) = (1/400)e-x/400 for x ≥ 0. Let N denote the number of bids that Alex obtains before selling his guitar i.e., Alex sells his laptop to the Nth bid. Showing your full working, (a) find E[N]. (b) find E[XN].
Suppose that X is a random variable having the following probability density function given by (2(0-x) x>0 f(x) = elsewhere Find the value of c such that an interval from x to cx is a (1-a)100% confidence interval for the parameter 8.
Let f(x) = x for 0 < x < 1. Is f(x) a legitimate probability distribution function (pdf) for a continuous random variable? No, the area under f(x) is not 1 (it is greater than 1). Yes, all criteria for a pdf are satisfied. No, the area under f(x) is not 1 (it it less than 1). No, f(x) is not non-negative.
