- Repeat Example 5 when microphone A receives the sound 4 seconds before microphone B.arrow_forwardSuppose Y1 and Y2 are random variables with joint pdf (6(1 — у2), 0, 0 < y1 < y2 fv, otherwise Y1 Let U1 and U2 = Y,. Use the transformation technique to show that U, follows a uniform Y2 distribution from 0 to 1.arrow_forward2. Suppose that X1, . Xn are iid Geometric random variables with frequency func- ... tion f(x; 0) = 0(1 – 0)", x = 0, 1, 2, ..., 0 E (0, 1). Find the ML estimator 0, of 0. Show that Ôn is consistent an find its asymptotic distribution.arrow_forward
- X is an exponential random variable with λ =1 and Y is a uniform random variable defined on (0, 2). If X and Y are independent, find the PDF of Z = X-Y2arrow_forwardA1arrow_forward10. Let T1,T2,….. ,Tk be independent Exponential random variables. Suppose E(T;) 1 i = 1, 2, ... , k. That is, fr,(t) = 2;e¯^i!, t>0, i = 1, 2, ... , k. Denote T, min min (T 1, T2, ... , Tk). %3D а) Show that T min also has an Exponential distribution. What is the mean of T min ?arrow_forward
- 4. Let X, Y be independent random variables. Prove that E(XY)= E(X) E(Y) and hence show that V(X+Y) = V(X)+V(Y).arrow_forward5arrow_forwardSuppose that X is a random variable which takes values in the set {1, 2, 3}. If P(X = 1) = 0.2 and E(X) = 2, determine the fourth moment E(X4). Answer:arrow_forward
- (ii) Suppose that X₁ and X₂ have joint pdf 2, 10, Compute the joint pdf of random variables Y₁ = X₁ and Y₂ = X2. f(x1, x₂): for 0 < x1 < x₂ < 1 otherwise =arrow_forwardLet X1, X2, ... Xn random variables be independent random variables with a Poisson distribution whose parameters are l1, l2, ... ln, respectively. Which of the following is the moment generating function of the random variable Z defined as (the little image)?arrow_forward(4) Let X be a discrete random variable with domain D. Prove that Var(X) = E(X?) – E(X).arrow_forward
