a) find P(X = 2 given that X < 5)
b) if Y = (2 - X)2 ,
i. Construct the probability distribution of Y.
ii. Find the expected value of Y
iii. Find the variance of Y
a) P(X = 2 | X < 5) = P(X = 2 and X < 5) / P(X < 5)
= P(X = 2) / P(X < 5)
= (0.2) / (0.15 + 0.2 + 0.1)
= 0.4444
b) Y = (2 - X)2
i)
X | Y | P(x) |
---|---|---|
0 | 4 | 0.15 |
2 | 0 | 0.2 |
4 | 4 | 0.1 |
6 | 16 | 0.25 |
7 | 25 | 0.3 |
Y | P(Y) |
---|---|
0 | 0.2 |
4 | 0.1+0.15 = 0.25 |
16 | 0.25 |
25 | 0.3 |
ii) Expected value = E(Y) = 0 * 0.2 + 4 * 0.25 + 16 * 0.25 + 25 * 0.3 = 12.5
iii) E(Y2) = 02 * 0.2 + 42 * 0.25 + 162 * 0.25 + 252 * 0.3 = 255.5
Var(Y) = E(Y2) - (E(Y))2 = 255.5 - 12.52 = 99.25
