Chapter 9.3, Problem 3CP

In a biased random walk, the probability of going up one unit is 0 < p < 1 , and the probability of going down one unit is q = 1 p . Design a Monte Carlo simulation with n = 1 0000 to find the probability that the biased random walk with p = 0.7 on the interval in Computer Problem 1 reaches the top. Calculate the error by comparing with the correct answer [ ( q / p ) b 1 ] / [ ( q / p ) a + b 1 ] for p q .

If X is a Poisson variable such that P(X = 2) = 9P(X = 4) +90 P(X = 6), find the mean and variance of X.
Suppose IQ scores were obtained for 20 randomly selected sets of siblings. The 20 pairs of measurements yield x = 100.88, y = 100.55, r= 0.917, P-value = 0.000, and y= -6.07 + 1.06x, where x represents the IQ score of the younger child. Find the best predicted value of y given that the younger child has an IQ of 110? The best predicted value of y is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
