Name 1. This problem is designed to test your skill in using the Tables in the Appendix to find probabilities and cutoffs. (Drawing a picture is highly recommended.) (a) Suppose that the random variable B follows a Binomial distribution with no 9 and p = .70, find P(B = 6). (b) Suppose that the random variable z follows the Standard Normal probability distribution, find P(Z 2 -1.27). (C) Suppose that the random variable T follows at distribution with degrees of...
3. Let X be normal random variable and Y be a Chi-square random variable with df degrees of freedom then the ratio follows (note that this is the reason we use a common test when We don't know for certain the true value of the variance): a) A x?distribution b) A normal distribution c) An F distribution d) At distribution.

Question 2. Consider a random variable X~x20 - Answer the following. i) ii) What are E(X) and Var(X)? What value is the value xão,0.1 that satisfies P(xão > xão,0.1) = 0.1? Suppose you draw random samples of n=40 individual values from a population where the relative frequency of values follows a Chi-square distribution with 20 degrees of freedom. That is Xi~xão for every random variable in the random sample (X1 , X2 ,... X40). iii) iv) Use the Central Limit...
Prove that if random variable X follows a standard normal distribution (with mean u= 0 and standard deviation o = 1), then Y = X2 follows a chi-square distribution with 1 degree of freedom. In particular, show that My(t) = Mx2(t) = E[etX?), which equals the moment generating function of a chi-square distribution with 1 degree of freedom.
