Question
X is a random variable. It is known that E[X] = 0. The experiment that generates X is
run 5 times and 5 measurements of X are taken. They are:
25
-24.0 34.0 66.5 10.0 -8.4
The most plausible statement to be concluded from these facts is:
a. X is continuous and uniform on (-2000, 2000)
b. X always takes on integer values
c. Var[X] > 4
d. X is orthogonal to X2
e. The CDF of X has a slope of 1 at z = 34.
