proof for distribution of (n-1)S^2/sigma^2 is the chi square
distribution with n-1 degrees of freedom.
I don't understand the expansion of the square, specifically how
certain terms disappeared and how a sqrt(n) appeared. Also towards
the end, why does V have a degree of freedom of 1? x A detailed
explanation of what happened from step 2 to step 3 would be very
helpful!

Prove that if random variable X follows a standard normal distribution (with mean u= 0 and standard deviation o = 1), then Y = X2 follows a chi-square distribution with 1 degree of freedom. In particular, show that My(t) = Mx2(t) = E[etX?), which equals the moment generating function of a chi-square distribution with 1 degree of freedom.

The following distributional facts apply in this part: All variables are jointly normal and the marginals are as follows: N(m,s ): This is the notation for the Normal distribution with mean m and standard deviations . X~N(5,2) Y~N(2,3) Z~N(0,1) W~N(-4,6) U~N(0,5) V~N(24,1) Covariances between these variables are: sxy =.4, sxw =-.5, swu =1, suv =2; allothercovariancesare0. We have a random sample of size 6 from the distribution of X. We have a random sample of size 10 from the distribution...
Please answer A.6.6.:
The previous two questions mentioned above are included
below:
A.6.6. We mentioned in class that the Gamma(, 2) distribution when k is a positive integer is called the Chi-square distribution with k degrees of freedom. From the previous two problems, find the mean, variance, and MGF of the Chi-square distribution with k degrees of freedom. A.6.5. In class we showed that if X ~ Gamma(α, β) then E (X) = aß and uar(X) = αβ2 by using...
