Q3
Let X be a Normal random variable with mean 4, and variance o. A new random variable
is defined as Y = aX +b where a and b are constants and a >0. By using the property that
new random variable Y also has Normal probability density function, answer the following
questions
a) E[Y]=?, var(r)=?
b) Suppose that 4g =0.5 and o = 4. Sketch fx (x) and fy(y) on the same figure for
a = 2, b=1. Give the critical values on the figure.
c) It is given that P(Xsc)= P(Y<3), find the value of c by using same constants and
parameters given in part “b" (µx =0.5, ơ =4, a=2, b=1).
