Exercise 1. C Suppose we performed the experiment with replacement: each time sampling a ball we would return it back. What would then be the distribution of X?
1. Generating the sampling distribution of the mean Аа Аа Suppose you use sampling techniques to estimate the mean of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. To do this, you perform an experiment in which you roll an eight-sided die two times (or equivalently, roll two eight-sided dice one time) and calculate the mean of your sample The true mean (u) of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 is and...
A box contains four green balls. We choose balls at random, with replacement, according to the following rules: (i) Upon choosing each ball from the box, we mark it with a red stripe before replacing it in the box. (ii) We stop as soon as we choose a ball with a red stripe (i.e. the ball has been chosen twice). Let x= the number of times that balls were chosen from the box. (Note that x must be at least...
A box contains 5 green balls. We choose balls at random, with replacement, according to the following rules: (i) Upon choosing each ball from the box, we mark it with a red stripe before replacing it in the box. (ii) We stop as soon as we choose a ball with a red stripe (i.e. the ball has been chosen twice). Let x= the number of times that balls were chosen from the box. (Note that x must be at least...
Suppose we have the following experiment: choosing a single ball from a bag which has an equal number of red, green, yellow, and blue balls, and then rolling a 6 sided die. What is the size of our sample space?
2. Consider an urn that contains red and green balls. At time 0 there are k balls with at least one ball of each color. At time n we draw out a ball chosen at random.We return it to the urn and add one more of the color chosen. Let X be the fraction of red balls at time n. Show that Xn is a martingale with respect to the filtration (X0,Xi, ,Xn). At time n there are nk balls,...
Suppose that a person plays a game in which he draws a ball from a box of 10 balls numbered 0 through 9. He then puts the ball back and continue to draw a ball (with replacement) until he draws another number which is equal or higher than the first draw. Let X denote the number drawn in the first draw and Y denote the number of subsequent draws needed. (a) Find the conditional probability distribution of Y given X...

Why does the bootstrap method require sampling with replacement? What would happen if bootstrap resampling was used, but the samples were without replacement?
Suppose we took samples of employees with 30 employees in each sample. If the average satisfaction level is .614 with a standard deviation of .254. What would be the shape of the sampling distribution if we took these samples over and over again and recorded the means of each sample mean?
