Question
![You have 1000 dollars to put in an account with interest rate R, compounded annually. That is, if X,
is the value of the account at year n, then
X, = 1000(1 + R)", for n = 0,1, 2, -...
The value of Ris a random variable that is determined when you put the money in the bank, but it
does not not change after that. In particular, assume that R~ Uniform(0.04, 0.05).
a. Find all possible sample functions for the random process {Xn,n = 0, 1,2, ...}.
b. Find the expected value of your account at year three. That is, find E[X3].](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/9e2f437c-8f65-400a-b3df-a238739c912c/263b0fe2-f5cb-454c-bb05-2b42cd6dc54e/2i3evc_thumbnail.jpeg)
