Document Summary

A function x : s r, that associates a real number x(s) to each outcome s is called a random variable. Notation: the range of the random variable is denoted rx. Rx is the set of all possible values that x can take. Note: we use upper-case letters (often at the end of the alphabet) to denote random variables, e. g. x, y, z, w, . Note: as an outcome is observed and we evaluate the random variables, we obtain an observed value. The observed values are denoted with lower-case letters, e. g. x, y, z, w, . Example 1: consider calls to a communication system. Let x be the waiting time between two calls. Events with random variables: we can construct events with ran- dom variables. Here are a few examples: let a r, we interpret {x a} as the following event:

I have the answer for the following question. But some of theanswers are not correct.

Please do the following question by yourself and check which arethe wrong answers,please post your answers and compare to it.

Let r in and u =(1 1 0), v = (1 4 1), w = (r2 1 r2), b = (3+2r 5+12r 2r). For which values r in is the set {u. v, w} linearly independent? For which values r in is the vector b a linear combination of u. v and w? For which of these values of r can b be written as a linear combination of u. v and w in more than one way? The set 3 of all column vectors of length three, with real entries, is a vector space. Is the subset B = {(x y z) in 3 | xy + yz = 0} a subspace of 3? Justify your answer. Show that the set of all twice differentiable functions f : satisfying the differential equation sin(x) f"(x) + x2f(x) = 0 is a vector space with respect to the usual operations of addition of functions and multiplication by scalars. Here, f" denotes the second derivative of f. Let S be the following subset of the vector space 3 of all real polynomials p of degree at most 3: S = {p in 3 | p(l) = 0, p'(l) = 0}, where p' is the derivative of p.
