28 Suppose that a mound-shaped data set has a
mean of 10 and standard deviation of 2.
a. About what percentage of the data should
lie between 8 and 12?
b. About what percentage of the data should
lie above 10?
c. About what percentage of the data should
lie above 12?
27 Suppose that you have a data set of 1, 2, 2, 3,
3, 3, 4, 4, 5, and you assume that this sample
represents a population. The mean is 3 and g
the standard deviation is 1.225.10
a. Explain why you can apply the empirical
rule to this data set.
b. Where would "most of the values" in the
population fall, based on this data set?
30 Explain how you can use the empirical rule
to find out whether a data set is mound-
shaped, using only the values of the data
themselves (no histogram available).

- 5. Let X be a positive random variable with finite variance, and let A = (0, 1). Prove that P(X AEX) 2 (1-A)² (EX)² EX2arrow_forward6. Let, for p = (0, 1), and xe R. X be a random variable defined as follows: P(X=-x) = P(X = x)=p. P(X=0)= 1-2p. Show that there is equality in Chebyshev's inequality for X. This means that Chebyshev's inequality, in spite of being rather crude, cannot be improved without additional assumptions.arrow_forward4.

- 8. Recall, from Sect. 2.16.4, the likelihood ratio statistic, Ln, which was defined as a product of independent, identically distributed random variables with mean 1 (under the so-called null hypothesis), and the, sometimes more convenient, log-likelihood, log L, which was a sum of independent, identically distributed random variables, which, however, do not have mean log 1 = 0. (a) Verify that the last claim is correct, by proving the more general statement, namely that, if Y is a non-negative random variable with finite mean, then E(log Y) log(EY). (b) Prove that, in fact, there is strict inequality: E(log Y) < log(EY), unless Y is degenerate. (c) Review the proof of Jensen's inequality, Theorem 5.1. Generalize with a glimpse on (b).arrow_forward2. Derive the component transformation equations for tensors shown be- low where [C] = [BA] is the direction cosine matrix from frame A to B. B[T] = [C]^[T][C]T 3. The transport theorem for vectors shows that the time derivative can be constructed from two parts: the first is an explicit frame-dependent change of the vector whereas the second is an active rotational change of the vector. The same holds true for tensors. Starting from the previous result, derive a version of transport theorem for tensors.

Let X be a random variable with finite variance, o². (a) Prove that, for x ≥ 0, P(X EX2x)≤ 02 x² +0² 202 P(|X - EX2x)<≤ (b) Find X assuming two values where there is equality. (c) When is Cantelli's inequality better than Chebyshev's inequality? (d) Use Cantelli's inequality to show that med (X) - EX ≤ o√√3; recall, from Proposition 6.1, that an application of Chebyshev's inequality yields the bound o√√2.

- The college hiking club is having a fundraiser to buy new equipment for fall and winter outings. The club is selling Chinese fortune cookies at a price of $2 per cookie. Each cookie contains a piece of paper with a different number written on it. A random drawing will determine which number is the winner of a dinner for two at a local Chinese restaurant. The dinner is valued at $32. Since fortune cookies are donated to the club, we can ignore the cost of the cookies. The club sold 718 cookies before the drawing. Lisa bought 13 cookies. Lisa's expected earnings can be found by multiplying the value of the dinner by the probability that she will win. What are Lisa's expected earnings? Round your answer to the nearest cent.arrow_forwardThe Honolulu Advertiser stated that in Honolulu there was an average of 659 burglaries per 400,000 households in a given year.
