Let X1,..., X., be a independent identically distributed sample from the DISCRETE uniform distribution with probability mass function 1/0 P(X = x) for a € {1,2,...,0} otherwise i.e. O is an unknown parameter and the probability that X takes any integer between 1 and is constant. Suppose we use @ = 2X - 1 to estimate 0. Find the bias and mean-squared error (MSE) of O. (Note: Di-1 32 = 0(0+1)(20 + 1)/6)
The geometric distribution is a probability distribution of the number X of Bernoulli trials needed to get one success. For example, how many attempts does a basketball player need to get a goal. Given the probability of success in a single trial is p, the probability that the xth trial is the first success is: Pr(x = x|p) = (1 - p*-'p for x=1,2,3,.... Suppose, you observe n basketball players trying to score and record the number of attempts required...

Creating a Discrete Probability Distribution Table Suppose that a box contains 7 cameras and that 4 of them are defective. A sample of 2 cameras is selected at random. Define the random variable X X as the number of defective cameras in the sample. Write the probability distribution for X X . Give your answers to 2 decimal places. k P(X = k) What is the expected value of X X ? Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
1. (2 points) What are the two requirements for a probability distribution? 2. (8 points) Suppose Lonzo has basketball practice three days a week. Seventy percent of the time, he attends all three practices. Ten percent of the time, he attends two practices. Three percent of the time he only attend one practice. a. Let X- b. X takes on what values? Suppose one week is randomly chosen. Construct a probability distribution table (called a PDF table). The table should...

2. Suppose that you read through this years issues of the New York Times and record each number that appears in a news article: the income of a CEO, the number of cases of wine produced by a winery, the total charitable contribution of a politician during the previous tax year, the age of a celebrity, and so on. Now focus on the leading digit of cach number, which could be 1,2,,8, or 9. Your first thought might be that...
