Probability distribution

Probability and Distributions Abstract This paper will discuss the trends and data values and how they relate to statistical terms. Also will describe the probability of different actions to the same group of data. The data will be broke down accordingly to qualitative and quantitative data, and will be grouped and manipulated to show how the data in each group can prove to be useful in the workplace.

Financial Econometrics (AP/ECON 4140 S2) Winter 2013 Instructor: Yasin Janjua Assignment # 1 Total Points (100) Part I: Do the following Questions 1. Define American Call/Put option 10 pts Answer Options allow investors to hedge against risk. If one expects stock prices to rise, then he/she may like to invest in stocks. However, buying stocks also entails risk because of price fluctuation. The risk will be potentially large in case price falls to zero. In order to avoid

1   General Information 15.060: Data, Models, and Decisions Professors Vivek Farias, Robert Freund, and Cynthia Rudin Fall 2012 Description 01 2 Many managerial decisions—regardless of their functional orientation—are increasingly based on analysis using quantitative models from the discipline of management science. Management science tools, techniques and concepts (e.g., data, models, and software programs) have dramatically changed the way businesses operate in manufacturing

Homework 3   Probability   1.    As part of a Pick Your Prize promotion, a store invited customers to choose which of three prizes they’d like to win.  They also kept track of respondents’ gender.  The following contingency table shows the results:     | MP3 Player | Camera | Bike | Total | Men | 62 | 117 | 60 | 239 | Woman | 101 | 130 | 30 | 261 | Total | 163 | 247 | 90 | 500 |         What is the probability that: a.    a randomly selected customer would pick the camera? 247/500= 0.494=

year, as follows: 1. In Excel, use a suitable method for generating the number of days needed to repair the copier, when it is out of service, according to the discrete distribution shown. 2. In Excel, use a suitable method for simulating the interval between successive breakdowns, according to the continuous distribution shown.  3. In Excel, use a suitable method for simulating the lost revenue for each day the copier is out of service. 4. Put all of this together to simulate the

Linear Programming D.V. – Decision Variables O.F. – Objective Funtion S.T. or CONST - Constraints Constrained Mathematical Model – a model with an objective and one or more constraints EXAMPLE: 50D + 30C + 6M is the total profit for a production run($50 profit for Desk, $30 profit for Chair and $6 per pound for steel) Functional Constraints - ≤ ≥ or = --Restrictions that involve expressions with 1 or more variables EXAMPLE: 7d+3c+1.5M <= 2000 (constraint on raw steel) Variable Constraints

value of sample information tutor: Expected value is the main thought in probability, in an intellect more general than probability itself. The expected value of a real-valued selection variable offers a compute of the center of the distribution of the variable. More considerably, by taking the expected value of various functions of a common random variable, we can calculate a lot of interesting features of its distribution, including spread and correlation. Tutor is a personality working in the

safety and maintaining rapid accrual through a reliable practical dose finding design [1]. A phase I cancer trial aims to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), defined as the dose for which the probability of toxicity is closest to a prespecified target toxicity rate p_T (the toxicity probability of the true MTD). Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is a side effect of treatments that are serious enough to prevent an increase in dose. In other words, MTD is the highest

Assignment Week 1 Answer the following questions: 1. Describe the rationale for utilizing probability concepts.   For practical reasons, variables are observed to collect data. The sampled data is then analyzed to elicit information for decision making in business and indeed in all human endeavors. However, sampled information is incomplete and not free from sampling error. Its use in decision-making processes introduces an element of chance. Therefore, it is important for a decision-maker
