Suppose the random variables X, Y and Z are related through the model
Y = 2 + 2X + Z,
where Z has mean 0 and variance σ2 Z = 16 and X has variance σ2 X = 9. Assume X and Z are independent, the find the covariance of X and Y and that of Y and Z. Hint: write Cov(X, Y ) = Cov(X, 2+2X+Z) and use the propositions of covariance from slides of Chapter 4.
