QUESTION 18 - 1 POINT Jessie is playing a dice game and bets $9 on her first roll. If a 10, 7, or 4 is rolled, she wins $9. This happens with a probability of . If an 8 or 2 is rolled, she loses her $9. This has a probability of J. If any other number is rolled, she does not win or lose, and the game continues. Find the expected value for Jessie on her first roll. Round to the nearest cent if necessary. Do not round until the final calculation. Provide your answer below:
5 of 5 (i) Let a discrete sample space be given by Ω = {ω1, 2, 3, 4}, Total marks 12 and let a probability measure P on be given by P(w1) 0.2, P(w2) = 0.2, P(w3) = 0.5, P(w4) = 0.1. = Consider the random variables X1, X2 → R defined by X₁(w3) = 1, X₁(4) = 1, X₁(w₁) = 1, X₁(w2) = 2, X2(w1) = 2, X2(w2) = 2, X2(W3) = 1, X2(w4) = 2. Find the joint distribution of X1, X2. (ii) [4 Marks] Let Y, Z be random variables on a probability space (N, F, P). Let the random vector (Y, Z) take on values in the set [0,1] × [0,2] and let the joint distribution of Y, Z on [0,1] × [0,2] be given by 1 dPy,z(y, z) (y²z + y²²) dy dz. Find the distribution Py of the random variable Y. [8 Marks]
Total marks 16 5. Let (,,P) be a probability space and let X : → R be a random variable whose probability density function is given by f(x) = }}|x|e¯|×| for x Є R. (i) (ii) Find the characteristic function of the random variable X. [8 Marks] Using the result of (i), calculate the first two moments of the random variable X, i.e., E(X") for n = 1, 2. (iii) What is the variance of X? [6 Marks] [2 Marks]
