Question

Let X be a random variable with range {0, 1, 2, . . .}. The discrete version of the formula from problem 2.14 in the textbook, i.e. 2.14 (b), can be written

EX = ΣP(X 2 k). k=1

Use this formula to solve the following problem.

A fair dice is thrown n times. The sample space is S = {1, 2, . . . , 6} n , the outcomes are of the form s = (s1, . . . , sn) ∈ S. Let Yn denote the largest of the results thrown, i.e. Yn is a r.v. with Yn(s1, . . . , sn) = max1≤k≤n sk. Find EYn and show limn→∞ E(Yn) = 6.
