Problem 28. Suppose X is a finite set of real numbers. Show that if a ≤ b then 1. P(a < X ≤ b) = F(b) − F(a). 2. P(a ≤ X ≤ b) = F(b) − F(a) + f(a). 3. P(a < X < b) = F(b) − F(a) − f(b). 4. P(a ≤ X < b) = F(b) − F(a) + f(a) − f(b). (Use 1 when showing 2-4.) Theorem 35. Every CDF function is non-decreasing with a max value of 1.

Let X be a finite set and F a family of subsets of X such that every element of X appears in at least one subset in F. We say that a subset C of F is a set cover for X if X =U SEC S (that is, the union of the sets in C is X). The cardinality of a set cover C is the number of elements in C. (Note that an element of C is a...

2. Consider the utility maximization problem with n goods (a finite) (a) If the utility function u(c) is strictly concave, increasing, C1, and as- suming interiority of the optimal solution, what is the problem the consumer is solving? What are the FOCs for this problem using an "unconstrained" ap- proach (i.e., variable substitution in "primal" problem)? (b) Do optimal solutions for all goods satisfy "MRS" "price ratio" condition (i.e., MRSy(c) for all (V) i j)? If so, explain why. If...
2. Suppose you decide to randomly generate numbers from X ~ Unif (0,0). Your friend will ask for n numbers and then use this information to guess what value you (secretly) chose for θ. Typically, one might use θMLE-max Xi-X, to estimate θ. Your friend, however, has meganumerophobia, and is afraid to say the maximum number in the random sample. Instead he'll say the second largest number: θ-Xn-1. Determine the bias of this estimator by carefully finding the density function...

Question 1: Let R be the set of real numbers and let 2R be the set of all subsets of the real numbers. Prove that 2 cannot be in one-to-one correspondence with R. Proof: Suppose 2 is in one-to-one correspondence with R. Then by definition of one- to-one correspondence there is a 1-to-1 and onto function B:R 2. Therefore, for each x in R, ?(x) is a function from R to {0, 1]. Moreover, since ? is onto, for every...
