Consider a random variable, Y , which has a quasi-Bernoulli structure.
With probability p ∈ [0, 1] it takes value 0.
With probability (1 − p) it is described by a continuous random variable, X , with the following PDF,
f_X (x)=1+x, x∈[−1,0), −1≤x<0f_X (x)=1−x, x∈[0,1], 0≤x≤1f_X (x)=0, otherwise , x>1
Obtain CDF of Y, F_Y (y), and draw the sketch.
If Z is a discrete random variable with possible values of -1, 0, and 1, and the probability mass function is given by P(Z = -1) = 0.4, P(Z = 0) = 0.3, and P(Z = 1) = 0.3, what is the standard deviation of Z?
Let X be a Gaussian random variable (0,1). Let M = ln(5*X) be a derived random variable. What is E[M]?
