In: Statistics and Probability
Discrete random
variables X and Y have joint probability mass function defined by
the table below.
X= { 0 , 1 , 2 } , Y= { − 2 , 0 , 2 }
y/x | 0 | 1 | 2 |
-2 | 0.2 | 0.1 | 0.1 |
0 | 0.0 | 0.4 | 0.0 |
2 | 0.1 | 0.0 | 0.1 |
A.) Evaluate the expected value of X (round to 2 decimal digits)
B.) Evaluate the variance of X (round to 2 decimal digits)
C.) Evaluate the covariance of X and Y. (round to 2 decimal digits) Are X and Y independent?
D.) Let W=3X-2Y+4. What is the mean of W? What is the standard deviation of W? (round to 2 decimal digits)
