Probability estimation

  • It suffices to plug in the parameters and X values in the equation for pk(x).\
  • Hence the equation will be p1(4)=0.8e(1/72)(410)20

In a recent study on world happiness, participants were asked to evaluate their current lives on a scale from 0 to 10, where O represents the worst possible life and 10 represents the best possible life. The responses were normally distributed, with a mean of 5.3 and a standard deviation of 1.9. Answer parts (a)-(d) below. (a) Find the probability that a randomly selected study participant's response was loss than 4. The probability that a randomly selected study participant's response was lons than 4 is (Round to four decimal placos as needed.)
Use Python or Matlab to produce the solution for the following problems. Calculate the probability that individual has at least two violations. Calculate the expected value and variance of number of violations.  Suppose an individual with X violations incurs a surcharge of $30X+$50. Calculate the expected amount of the surcharge, and the variance.
The task is to implement density estimation using the K-NN method. Obtain an iidsample of N ≥ 1 points from a univariate normal (Gaussian) distribution (let us callthe random variable X) centered at 1 and with variance 2. Now, empirically obtain anestimate of the density from the sample points using the K-NN method, for any valueof K, where 1 ≤ K ≤ N. Produce one plot for each of the following cases (each plotshould show the following three items: the N data points (instances or realizations ofX) and the true and estimated densities versus x for a large number – e.g., 1000, 10000– of discrete, linearly-spaced x values): (i) K = N = 1, (ii) K = 2, N = 10, (iii) K = 10,N = 10, (iv) K = 10, N= 1000, (v) K = 100, N= 1000, (vi) K = N = 50,000. Pleaseprovide appropriate axis labels and legends. Thus there should be a total of six figures(plots),
