Suppose that Xi are IID normal random variables with mean 2 and variance 1, for i = 1, 2, ..., n. (a) Calculate P(X1 < 2.6), i.e., the probability that the first value collected is less than 2.6. (b) Suppose we collect a sample of size 2, X1 and X2. What is the probability that their sample mean is greater than 3? (c) Again, suppose we collect two samples (n=2), X1 and X2. What is the probability that their sum...
The difference of two independent normally distributed random variables is also normally distributed. We have used this fact in many of our derivations. Now, consider two independent and normally distributed populations with unknown variances σ 2 X and σ 2 Y . If we get a random sample X1, X2, . . . , Xn from the first population and a random sample Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn from the second population (note that both samples are of...

Construct the indicated confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations. Do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Independent samples from two different populations yield the following data. x1 = 958, x2 = 157, s1 = 77, s2 = 88. The sample size is 478 for both samples. Find the 85% confidence interval for ?1 - ?2.
3. Multiple Choice Question Consider two independent normal populations. A random sample of size ni = 16 is selected from the first normal population with mean 75 and variance 288. A second random sample of size 12 = 9 is selected from the second normal population with mean 80 and variance 162. Assume that the random samples are independent. Let X1 and X2 be the respective sample means. Find the probability that X1 + X2 is larger than 156.5. A....
Problem 5 of 5Sum of random variables Let Mr(μ, σ2) denote the Gaussian (or normal) pdf with Inean ,, and variance σ2, namely, fx (x) = exp ( 2-2 . Let X and Y be two i.i.d. random variables distributed as Gaussian with mean 0 and variance 1. Show that Z-XY is again a Gaussian random variable but with mean 0 and variance 2. Show your full proof with integrals. 2. From above, can you derive what will be the...
Two independent random samples are taken from a normal population with mean 40 and variance 16. The sample sizes are 5 and 20, and the corresponding sample means are denoted X1 and X2. Determine 1. EX1 - X2) 2. Var (X1 - X2)
