BONUS: Show using the definition of expected values for discrete random variables (Eq. 5.1) that for a discrete random variable, X, E(g(X)) = ∑g(x) p(x) where g(x) is linear. That is, show the formula is true assuming that g(x) = ax + b. You are showing that a special case of Eq. 5.2 is true; therefore, you many not use that formula.

How do you show this?
1.2.12. Accept the following definition. Discrete random variables X1, X2,.. , Xn, taking values in Ai, A2,..., An, are said to be independent if (1) P(Xi = ai , . . . ,x, = an) =11P(X, = a.) 仁1 for all ai E A1,., an E An. Then prove that random variables in any subsequence of a finite sequence of independent random variables are independent.

4. Expectation of Product of Random Variables Proof From the definition of the expected value, the expected value of the product of two random variables is ı r P(X Y r2) E(X- Y) ri r2 where the sum is over all possible values of rı and r2 that the variable X and Y can take on (a) Using the definition above formally prove that if the events X = r1 and Y = r2...
Problem 3. Let X be a discrete random variable that takes values in N. Show that if X is memory-free then it must be the case that X Geo(p) for some p. (Hint a useful first step might be to show that P(X > t)= P(X > 1)' for all t E N.)

8. Use characteristic functions to show that if statistically independent random variables X and Y are added, where X is Bernoulli(P) and Y is Binomial(n, p), the resulting random variable is Binomial(n +1,p). Hint: when random variables are discrete (like they are in this case), the pdf is made up of weighted impulses. The characteristic function is then very easy to compute.
