If the correlation coefficient of X and Y is 0.5, find the variance of (X+Y).arrow_forward
- Example 9-32. Show that the mean value of positive square root of a y (u) variate is T(u +; )/T(µ). Hence prove that the mean deviation of a normal variate from its mean is V2/T , where o is the standard deviation of the distribution.arrow_forward6.

- 1 Assume you fit a logistic regression for binary Y [i.e., replace EY in linear regression by log(EY/(1-EY))=log(odds)]. Instructor claims: beta for the main effect is log(OR), and beta for interaction effect is log(ROR), where ROR denotes the ratio of the odds ratio. Explain your agreement or disagreement.arrow_forwardSuppose X and Y are independent. X has a mean of 1 and variance of 1, Y has a mean of 0, and variance of 2. Let S=X+Y, calculate E(S) and Var(S). Let Z=2Y^2+1/2 X+1 calculate E(Z). Hint: for any random variable X, we have Var(X)=E(X-E(X))^2=E(X^2 )-(E(X))^2, you may want to find EY^2 with this. Calculate cov(S,X). Hint: similarly, we have cov(Z,X)=E(ZX)-E(Z)E(X), Calculate cov(Z,X). Are Z and X independent? Are Z and Y independent? Why? What about mean independence?arrow_forwardSuppose X and Y are two independent variables with variance 1. Let Z = X+bY where b > 0. If Cor(Z, Y ) = 1/2, what is the value of b?arrow_forward
