Let X and Y denote be as follows: E(X) = 10, E(X2) = 125, E(Y) = 20, Var(Y) =100 , and Var(X+Y) = 155. Let W = 2X-Y and let T = 4Y-3X. Find the covariance of W and T.
Find the covariance between x and y
Assess whether the following AR (1) process satisfies the criteria for covariance stationarity, taking into consideration all three conditions that define a covariance stationary process. Assume that u~i.i.d(0, var_u), where var_u = 1. Provide the working steps and underlying assumptions used to prove if each property holds. y_t = 2 + 0.3y_(t-1)+u_t
