If statement is false, circle the printed capital F. (a) Suppose that the life distribution of an item has the hazard rate function, λ(t) = t^2, t > 0. Let Ｘ be the lifetime of the item. Then Ｘ is memoryless. T F [3] (b) If Ｘ is a negative binomial random variable with parameters (r,p) = ( 2 , 1/5 ), then E[Ｘ] = 2/5. T F [3] (c) If Ｘ,Ｙ are random variables with Var(Ｘ) = 1, Var(Ｙ) = 2, then Var(Ｘ+Ｙ) = 3. T F [3] (d) If Ｘ,Ｙ are Poisson random variables with E[Ｘ] > E[Ｙ], then Var(Ｘ) > Var(Ｙ). T F [3] (e) Let Ａ,Ｂ and Ｃ be events relating to the experiment of rolling a pair of dice. If P(Ａ|Ｃ) > P(Ｂ|Ｃ) and P(Ａ|Ｃ^c) > P(Ｂ|Ｃ^c), then P(Ａ) > P(Ｂ). T F [3] 2. The expected number of typographical errors on a page of a certain magazine is 1. What is the probability that the next page you read contains 2 or more typographical errors. [10] 3. (a) Let Ｘ be a normal random variable with mean 2 and variance 4. Find the value of c such that P{ 1 < Ｘ < c } = 0.5. [5] (b) Find E[ (1+2Ｘ)^2 ]. [5] 4. Consider n married couples randomly seated in a round table. (a) If n = 4, find the exact probability that no husband sits next to his wife. [5] (b) Consider the case that n tends to ∞. Use the Poisson approximation to estimate the probability that no husband sits next to his wife. [5] 5. People enter a gambling casino at a rate of 1 every 2 minutes. (a) What is the probability that at least 3 people enter the casino between 12:00 and 12:05. [5] (b) Find the probability distribution of the time, starting from now, until the next person entering the casino. [5] 6. Die Ａ has 4 red and 2 white faces, whereas die Ｂ has 3 red and 3 white faces. A fair coin is flipped once. If it lands on heads, the game continues with die Ａ; if it lands on tails, then die Ｂ is to be used.If the first throw results in red, what is the probability of red at the second throw? [10] 7. The probability of getting a head on a single toss of a coin is 1/3. Suppose that Ａ starts and continues to flip the coin until a tail shows up, at which point Ｂ starts flipping. Then Ｂ continues to flip until a tail comes up, at which point Ａ takes over. Let Ｐ_n,m denote the probability that the person flipping the coin accumulates a total of n heads before the other person accumulates m heads (You should derive the relation between Ｐ_n,m and Ｐ_n-1,m first). (a) Let Ｅ be the desired event. Let Ｈ be the event that the first trial results in a head. By conditioning on the outcomes of the first trail, establish an equation for Ｐ_n,m . [3] (b) Find Ｐ_0,1 , Ｐ_1,0 and Ｐ_1,1 . [7] 8. Let Ｘ be the number of times that a fair coin that is flipped 100 times lands on heads. Use the normal approximation to find the probability that Ｘ < 41. [12] 9. Let Ｘ be uniformly distributed over (0,2). Let Ｙ = 1 / (Ｘ+1). (a) Find the probability density function of the random variable Ｙ. [5] (b) Find E[Ｙ] and Var(Ｙ). [8] --
