If
is the cumulative distribution function for
, then

Then the probability density function for
is
:

The
th moment of
is
![E[Y^n]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty y^nf_Y(y)\,\mathrm dy=\frac1{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int_0^\infty y^{n-1}e^{-\frac12(\ln y)^2}\,\mathrm dy](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5En%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20y%5Enf_Y%28y%29%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dy%3D%5Cfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%7B2%5Cpi%7D%7D%5Cint_0%5E%5Cinfty%20y%5E%7Bn-1%7De%5E%7B-%5Cfrac12%28%5Cln%20y%29%5E2%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dy)
Let
, so that
and
:
![E[Y^n]=\displaystyle\frac1{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{nu}e^{-\frac12u^2}\,\mathrm du=\frac1{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{nu-\frac12u^2}\,\mathrm du](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5En%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%7B2%5Cpi%7D%7D%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20e%5E%7Bnu%7De%5E%7B-%5Cfrac12u%5E2%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20du%3D%5Cfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%7B2%5Cpi%7D%7D%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20e%5E%7Bnu-%5Cfrac12u%5E2%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20du)
Complete the square in the exponent:

![E[Y^n]=\displaystyle\frac1{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{\frac12(n^2-(u-n)^2)}\,\mathrm du=\frac{e^{\frac12n^2}}{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-\frac12(u-n)^2}\,\mathrm du](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5En%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%7B2%5Cpi%7D%7D%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20e%5E%7B%5Cfrac12%28n%5E2-%28u-n%29%5E2%29%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20du%3D%5Cfrac%7Be%5E%7B%5Cfrac12n%5E2%7D%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B2%5Cpi%7D%7D%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20e%5E%7B-%5Cfrac12%28u-n%29%5E2%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20du)
But
is exactly the PDF of a normal distribution with mean
and variance 1; in other words, the 0th moment of a random variable
:
![E[U^0]=\displaystyle\frac1{\sqrt{2\pi}}\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-\frac12(u-n)^2}\,\mathrm du=1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BU%5E0%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%7B2%5Cpi%7D%7D%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20e%5E%7B-%5Cfrac12%28u-n%29%5E2%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20du%3D1)
so we end up with
![E[Y^n]=e^{\frac12n^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BY%5En%5D%3De%5E%7B%5Cfrac12n%5E2%7D)
Answer:
45.1 km^2
hope this helps
have a good day :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the z-distribution, it is found that the 95% confidence interval is (0.46, 0.526), and it does not provide strong evidence against that belief.
<h3>What is a confidence interval of proportions?</h3>
A confidence interval of proportions is given by:

In which:
is the sample proportion.
In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence
, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of
, so the critical value is z = 1.96.
We have that a random sample of 864 births in a state included 426 boys, hence the parameters are given by:

Then, the bounds of the interval are given by:


The 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of boys in all births is (0.46, 0.526). Since the interval contains 0.506, it does not provide strong evidence against that belief.
