- The data of two groups, each group contains two random variables (X1,Y1 and X2,Y2) and each of 30 students is collected. We would like to study the relation between X1,Y1 and X2,Y2 using the measure denoted by T1 andT2, where T1 = E[(Xi – X1)(Yıi – K)]² / [E(x1i - X,)²E(Yu – ¥,)*] ]. T2 = E[(X2i – X2)(Yi – Y)J² / [,E(X2i – X,)² E(Yzi – ¥)²] ]. The data given below, compare between the groups and interpret your results. 1 XI Y1 X2 Y2 98 44 74 52 95 57 79 59 94 66 78 56 81 64 70 74 84 73 79 77 66 65 72 66 73 65 74 50 72 67 98 62 71 66 93 76 67 76 76 84 70 77 86 55 93 66 98 66 92 43 83 65 77 58 68 59 94 56 73 53 76 70 69 74 93 59 90 50 69 59 70 51 86 66 84 55 98 51 78 48 71 64 75 61 95 74 81 53 84 73 73 46 83 69 80 52 78 58 98 61 72 70 79 68 98 53 98 52 73 54 77 56 81 71 84 51 84 49 82 69arrow_forwardLet X₁, X₂ be a random sample from N (1,1) and Y₂₁, Y₂ be a random sample from N (0,1), where the samples are independent.

- Suppose 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_forwardLet X and Y are 2 independent random variables N (0,1) Questions: how to find E(X), E(Y), E(X^2), E(Y^2)? Thank youarrow_forward
