  • Random variables X and Y have joint probability mass function (PMF):

    Random variables \(X\) and \(Y\) have joint probability mass function (PMF):\(P_{X, Y}\left(x_{k}, y_{j}\right)=P\left(X=x_{k}, Y=y_{j}\right)= \begin{cases}\frac{1}{20}\left|x_{k}+y_{j}\right|, & x_{k}=-1,0,1 ; y_{j}=-3,0,3 \\ 0, & \text { otherwise }\end{cases}\)(a) Find \(F_{X, Y}(x, y)\), the joint cumulative distribution function (CDF) of \(X\) and \(Y\). A graphical representation is sufficient: probably the best way to do this is to draw the \(x-y\) plane and label different regions with the value of \(F_{X, Y}(x, y)\) in that region.(b) Let \(Z=X^{2}+Y^{2}\). Find the probability mass function (PMF)...

  • Consider the linear system A.r = b where A = 1

    Consider the linear system \(A x=b\) where \(A=\left[\begin{array}{rr}2 & -1 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right], b=\left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 1\end{array}\right], x=\left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]\).We showed in class, using the eigenvlaues and eigenvectors of the iteration matrix \(M_{G S}\), that for \(x^{(0)}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0 & 0\end{array}\right]^{T}\) the error at the \(k^{t h}\) step of the Gauss-Seidel iteration is given by$$ e^{(k)}=\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{k}\left[\begin{array}{l} 2 \\ 1 \end{array}\right] $$for \(k \geq 1\). Following the same procedure, derive an analogous expression for the error in Jacobi's method for the same system.

  • Defining the cross product The cross product of two nonzero vectors

    Defining the cross product The cross product of two nonzero vectors \(\vec{u}\) and \(\vec{v}\) is another vector \(\vec{u} \times \vec{v}\) with magnitude$$ |\vec{u} \times \vec{v}|=|\vec{u}||\vec{v}| \sin (\theta), $$where \(0 \leq \theta \leq \pi\) is the angle between the two vectors. The direction of \(\vec{u} \times \vec{v}\) is given by the right hand rule: when you put the vectors tail to tail and let the fingers of your right hand curl from \(\vec{u}\) to \(\vec{v}\) the direction of \(\vec{u} \times \vec{v}\)...
