Using R, Exercise 4 (CLT Simulation) For this exercise we will simulate from the exponential distribution. If a random variable X has an exponential distribution with rate parameter A, the pdf of X can be written for z 2 0 Also recall, (a) This exercise relies heavily on generating random observations. To make this reproducible we will set a seed for the randomization. Alter the following code to make birthday store your birthday in the format yyyymmdd. For example, William...
Suppose that U is a random variable with a uniform distribution on (0,1). Now suppose that f is the PDF of some continuous random variable of interest, that F is the corresponding CDF, and assume that F is invertible (so that the function F-1 exists and gives a unique value). Show that the random variable X = F-1(U) has PDF f(x)—that is, that X has the desired PDF. Hint: use results on transformations of random variables. This cute result allows...

5 Random Numbers and Histograms [Applied] Let x = x1 + ... + x20, the sum of 20 independent Uniform(0,1) random variables. In R, create 1,000 simulations of x and plot their histogram. On the histogram, overlay a graph of the normal density function with the same mean as x. Comment on any differences between the histogram and the curve. Hint 1: To plot a histogram in R you can build on the following code: library(ggplot2) df <- data.frame( x...

Question 3 A more general form of Cauchy distribution is defined by the density function f(x; m, 7) = where m is the location parameter, is the scale parameter and they are both constants. We will create a function to simulate draws of a Cauchy(m, 7) distribution in this exercise using the inversion method.
