A family of curves is a group of curves that are each described by a parametrization in which one or more variables are parameters. In general, the parameters have more complexity on the assembly of the curve than an ordinary linear transformation. These…

XZ Plane

In order to understand XZ plane, it's helpful to understand two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. To plot a point on a plane, two numbers are needed, and these two numbers in the plane can be represented as an ordered pair (a,b) where a and b are…

Euclidean Geometry

Geometry is the branch of mathematics that deals with flat surfaces like lines, angles, points, two-dimensional figures, etc. In Euclidean geometry, one studies the geometrical shapes that rely on different theorems and axioms. This (pure mathematics) ge…

Lines and Angles

In a two-dimensional plane, a line is simply a figure that joins two points. Usually, lines are used for presenting objects that are straight in shape and have minimal depth or width.

B1 The x distribution is a special case of Gamma distribution (not to be confused with gamma function; see below). The density function of the Gamma distribution with parameters and k is given by where -1 e -x/0 (x) = = г(k) Øk if x > 0, and otherwise, г(k) = √ ₁ k-1-x dx x' e is the gamma function. (a) For every k ≥ 1, 0 > 0, find the mode of the density. Hint: The algebra can be simplified by appropriate use of logarithms. ~ Now suppose that X1,..., Xn id Exp(\) and that we have a prior belief in A which is consistent with a prior distribution X. Gamma(a, b), for some a, ß, i.e. the prior density of is Baxa-1-BA T(a) e = so 01/ẞ and k = a. (b) Write down the likelihood, and show that the posterior distribution for \ is also a Gamma distribution, but with parameters a +n and B + Σ Xi. (c) Find the mode of the posterior distribution and examine the behaviour as n → ∞.
