A random variable Y is a function of random variable X, where y=x^3 and fx(x)=1 from 0 to 1 and =0 elsewhere. Determine fy(y). Ans: fy(y)=(1/3)y^(-2/3) for 0<y<1
Let X be a random variable with cdf FX (x:0), expected value EIX-μ and variance VlX- σ2. Let X1,X2, , Xn be an id sample drawn according to FX(x,8) where Fx (x,8) =万 for all x E (0,0). Let max(X1, X2, , X.) be an estimator of θ, suggested from pure common sense. Remember that if Y = max(X1, X2, , Xn). Then it can be shown that the cdf Fy () of Y is given by Fr(u) (Fx()" where...
