The technique is very similar to the one used with the Feynman-Kac formula back in MATH 467. Let's consider the PDE given by with terminal condition f(T,x) af + Ət 1 02 ર .2მ2 f af მ2 +rx მე - rf = 0, = (x-K)+. The solution f(t, x) corresponds to the price of a call option (given the initial condition) at time t if the stock price is x. (a) The first two things that prevent us from solving this PDE directly are (i) the fact that we have a terminal condition, instead of an initial condition; (ii) the terms in front of the derivatives are not constant. To address these, we use the transformation g(t, x) = ƒ(T − t,e³), equivalent to f(t, x) = g(T-t, log(x)). Under this condition, determine the PDE and the initial condition satisfied by g. (b) Now, the PDE obtained in (a) should have an initial condition and constant coeffi- cients, but it still…arrow_forward٣:٥٣ النموذج الاول . . .

The runner continues training as usual and tracks how many kilometers each shoe lasts before showing significant wear (e.g., loss of cushioning, outsole damage). Since both shoes experience the same runner, terrain, and conditions, any lifespan difference can be attributed to the shoe brand rather than external factors. Test whether Brand A running shoes have a significantly shorter lifespan than Brand B when worn under the same conditions by the same runner.
