問 1
1

The probability generating function of a discrete random variable \(X\) is given by \(G_X(t) = \frac{1}{3}(1 + t + t^2)\). A second independent random variable \(Y\) has the PGF \(G_Y(t) = \frac{1}{2}(1 + t)\). Find the probability \(P(X + Y = 2)\).

問 2
1

The PGF of the discrete random variable \(X\) is \(G_X(t) = \frac{1}{1-p(t-1)}\) where \(0 < p < 1\). Find the expression for the variance \(\text{Var}(X)\) in terms of \(p\).

問 3
1

The random variable \(X\) has a probability generating function given by \(G_X(t) = (0.2 + 0.8t)^n\). Given that the variance of \(X\) is 1.6, find the value of \(n\) and use it to find \(P(X=1)\).

問 4
1

The random variable \(X\) has PGF \(G_X(t) = \frac{k}{4-t-t^2}\). Find the value of the constant \(k\) and the mean \(E(X)\).

問 5
1

The PGF of a random variable \(X\) is given by \(G_X(t) = k(1-qt)^{-1}\) for \(0 < q < 1\). Given that \(G_X(1) = 1\), find the value of \(k\) and determine the expression for \(P(X=r)\) for \(r = 0, 1, 2, \).

問 6

問 10
7

A random variable \(Y\) is the sum of two independent discrete random variables \(X_1\) and \(X_2\). The pgf of \(X_1\) is \(G_{X_1}(t) = e^{2(t-1)}\) and the pgf of \(X_2\) is \(G_{X_2}(t) = (0.4 + 0.6t)^2\).

(a) Write down the pgf of \(Y\), \(G_Y(t)\).
(b) By differentiating \(G_Y(t)\), find the exact value of \(E(Y)\).
(c) Show that the variance of \(Y\) is the sum of the variances of \(X_1\) and \(X_2\).
(d) Find the coefficient of \(t^2\) in the expansion of \(G_Y(t)\) to determine \(P(Y=2)\), giving your answer to 4 decimal places.
