Consider the random variable X sim N(m, Sigma) , If another random variable Z is SNV such that Z = - 0.8 when X = 26 and Z = 2 when x = 40 then find m and 2 and P(X > 45) and P(|X - 30| > 5)
Added by John D.
Step 1
Solve for Z = aX + b using: a·26 + b = -0.8 a·40 + b = 2 Subtract: a(14) = 2.8 → a = 0.2 Then b = -0.8 − 0.2·26 = -0.8 − 5.2 = -6 So Z = 0.2X − 6. Show more…

1.1 Consider the following multivariate normal distribution parameters (characteristics): X ~ N(μ, Σ) where μ = L and Σ = z- (38). Use the properties of the multivariate normal distribution to find: P(Xi > 3) P(2Xz + 4X3 > 40) P(4X - 2Xz + 3Xz < 60) 1.2 Suppose Zi ~ N(0,1) for i = 1, 2, and 3. If the Z's are independent, Find the distribution of Y such that Y = ΣZi. What is the distribution of X such that X = [Z1, Z2, Z3]^T? 1.3 If Xi, Xn are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) N(μ, σ^2), prove that T = (X̄ - μ) / (s / ∑n) ~ t_n-1.

Suppose that X ~ (5, 10^2), i.e. it is a normal random variable with mean 5 and variance 10^2. You construct a new random variable Y by adding/subtracting an integer m to X and then dividing it to another integer n, that is Y = (X+m)/n. Answer the below questions. (a) Is Y normally distributed? Explain (b) Find an integer m and the smallest integer n which satisfies P (9.9 ≤ Y ≤ 10.2) ≥ 0.98 (c) Are there more than one m such that Y satisfies the condition given in part (b). Explain.
