The integer-valued random variable X(t) denotes the number of individuals alive at time t in a simple birth process {X (t);t 2 0). A partial differential equation for II(s, t), the probability generating function of X (t), is 하 =-88(1-8) on Os Ot In Activity 4.1 of Book 4, you showed that this partial differential equation has the general solution Suppose that X(0), the number of individuals alive at time 0, is a random variable: X(0) has the negative binomial...

Let Zmax [X1, -. .XN! and W-min\X1,... ,XN Find the distribution function of Z and W, if it suppose N, X1, X2, are independent random variables and X,, have the same distribution function, F, and a) N-1 is a geometric random variable with parameter p (P(N-k), (k 1,2,.)) b) V - 1 is a Poisson random variable with...
The moment generating function (MGF) for a random variable X is: Mx (t) = E[e'X]. Onc useful property of moment generating functions is that they make it relatively casy to compute weighted sums of independent random variables: Z=aX+BY M26) - Mx(at)My (Bt). (A) Derive the MGF for a Poisson random variable X with parameter 1. (B) Let X be a Poisson random variable with parameter 1, as above, and let y be a Poisson random variable with parameter y. X...
