Let X and Y be two random variables such that: Var[X]=4 Cov[X,Y]=2 Compute the following covariance: Cov[3X,X+3Y]
4. Recall that the covariance of random variables X, and Y is defined by Cov(X,Y) = E(X - Ex)(Y - EY) (a) (2pt) TRUE or FALSE (circle one). E(XY) 0 implies Cov(X, Y) = 0. (b) (4 pt) a, b, c, d are constants. Mark each correct statement ( ) Cov(aX, cY) = ac Cov(X, Y) ( ) Cor(aX + b, cY + d) = ac Cov(X, Y) + bc Cov(X, Y) + da Cov(X, Y) + bd ( )...
5. The means, standard deviations, and covariance for random variables X, Y, and Z are given below. Ux= 3, uy = 5, uz = 7 Ox= 1, OY = 3, oz = 4 cov(X, Y) = 1, cov (X, Z) = 3, and cov (Y,Z) = -3 T= X-28 +3 Z var(T) = 16. For a random variable X with an unknown distribution. The mean of X is u = 22 and tting a randomly chosen value of X
2. Properties of Correlation and Covariance: Two random variables Y and Z are represented by the following relationships Y = 0.5+0.6X Z = 0.2+0.3x where X is another random variable. You can treat the variance, Var(X), as a given constant. It may help to give Var(X) a name, ie. Var(x)ox2 a. Calcuate var(Y) and Var(Z) as a function of Var(X). Which is hrger? b. Calcuate Cov(Y,Z), Cov(X,Z) and Cov(X,Y) as a function of var(X). c. Calcuate Corr(Y,Z), Corr(X,Z) and Corn(X,Y)...
1) Let X and Y be random variables. Show that Cov( X + Y, X-Y) Var(X)--Var(Y) without appealing to the general formulas for the covariance of the linear combinations of sets of random variables; use the basic identity Cov(Z1,22)-E[Z1Z2]- E[Z1 E[Z2, valid for any two random variables, and the properties of the expected value 2) Let X be the normal random variable with zero mean and standard deviation Let ?(t) be the distribution function of the standard normal random variable....
15. The means, standard deviations, and covariance for random variables X, Y. and Z are given below. x = 3, uy = 5. z = 7 ox= 1, OY = 3, oz = 4 cov(X, Y) = 1, cov (X, Z) = 3, and cov (Y,Z) = -3 T=X-2Y+3 Z var(T) =
Consider two random variables, X and Y. Let E(X) and E(Y) denote the population means of X and Y respectively. Further, let Var(X) and Var(Y) denote the population variances of X and Y. Consider another random variable that is a linear combination of X and Y Z- 3X- Y What is the population variance of Z? Assume that X and Y are independent, which is to say that their covariance is zero.
Let X, Y, Z be random variables with these properties: · E[X] = 3 and E[X²] = 10 Var(Y) = 5 E[Z] = 2 and E[Z2] = 7 • X and Y are independent E[X2] = 5 Cov(Y,Z) = 2 Find Var(3X+Y – Z).
