- Let Xi be IID random variables which have the same law as X. Let L(t) = E(e^tX.) Suppose that this is well defined for t ∈ [−1, 1]. Express the moment generating function of the Sum from i=1 to k Xi in terms of k and Larrow_forwardConsider two independent random variables X1 andX2 having the same Cauchy distributionf(x) = 1π(1 + x2)for − q < x < qFind the probability density of Y1 = X1 + X2 by usingTheorem 1 to determine the joint probability density ofX1 and Y1 and then integrating out x1. Also, identify thedistribution of Y1.arrow_forwardLet Y be a continuous random variable. Let c be a constant. PROVE Var (Y) = E (Y2) - E (Y)2arrow_forward
- Let X1,X2,... be a sequence of identically distributed random variables with E|X1|<∞ and let Yn = n−1max1≤i≤n|Xi|. Show that limnE(Yn) = 0arrow_forwardLet X be a random variable with pdff(x) = 4x^3 if 0 < x < 1 and zero otherwise. Use thecumulative (CDF) technique to determine the pdf of each of the following random variables: 1) Y=X^4, 2) W=e^(-x) 3) Z=1-e^(-x) 4) U=X(1-X)arrow_forwardSketch the ensemble, that is, realizations of the random process X(t) = A cos(2πft), where f is a uniform random variable U(200, 300). That is, f is uniformly distributed in the range [200, 300] Hz and A = 7 is a constant.arrow_forward
- Let X be a random variable with pdf given by fX(x) = 1/[π(1 + x2)] for all real number x. Prove that X and 1/X are identically distributed by showing that they have the same probability distribution.arrow_forwardIf Y is a continuous, uniformly distributed random variable over the interval(4,10), then the value of the PDF between 4 and 10 is?arrow_forwardLet X1, .... Xn be a random sample from a population with location pdf f(x-Q). Show that the order statistics, T(X1, ...., Xn) = (X(1), ... X(n)) are a sufficient statistics for Q and no further reduction is possible?arrow_forward
