[画像:6.82 6.83 6.84 6.85 *6.86 6.87 If Y is a continuous random variable and m is the median of the distribution, then m is such that P(Ym) = P(Y ≥ m) = 1/2. If Y1, Y2,..., Y, are independent, exponentially dis- tributed random variables with mean ẞ and median m, Example 6.17 implies that Y(n) = max(Y1, Y., Y) does not have an exponential distribution. Use the general form of FY() (y) to show that P(Y(n) > m) = 1 - (.5)". Refer to Exercise 6.82. If Y1, Y2,..., Y,, is a random sample from any continuous distribution with mean m, what is P(Y(n) > m)? Refer to Exercise 6.26. The Weibull density function is given by -my" m-le-y/a f(y)= α 0. y > 0, elsewhere, where a and m are positive constants. If a random sample of size n is taken from a Weibull distributed population, find the distribution function and density function for Y(1) = min(Y1, Y2,Y). Does Y(1) = have a Weibull distribution? Let Y1 and Y2 be independent and uniformly distributed over the interval (0, 1). Find P(2Y(1) < Y(2)). Let Y1, Y2,..., Y, be independent, exponentially distributed random variables with mean B. Give the a density function for Y(k), the kth-order statistic, where k is an integer between 1 and n. b joint density function for Y() and Y(k) where j and k are integers 1 <j<k≤n. The opening prices per share Y, and Y2 of two similar stocks are independent random variables, each with a density function given by 340 Chapter 6 (1/2)e (1/2)(-4), y≥4, f(y) = elsewhere. On a given morning, an investor is going to buy shares of whichever stock is less expensive. Find the Functions of Random Variables 6.88 364/939 a probability density function for the price per share that the investor will pay. b expected cost per share that the investor will pay. Suppose that the length of time Y it takes a worker to complete a certain task has the probability density function given by f(y) = e-(-), y>0, elsewhere, where is a positive constant that represents the minimum time until task completion. Let Y1, Y2,..., Y, denote a random sample of completion times from this distribution. Find a the density function for Y(1) = min(Y1, Y2,..., Y). b E(Y(1)). *6.89 Let Y1, Y2,..., Y,, denote a random sample from the uniform distribution f(y) = 1,0≤ y ≤1.
