Suppose that Y has a gamma distribution with parameters α and β. a If a is any positive or negative value such that α + a > 0

, show that E(Ya ) = βa(α + a) (α) . b Why did your answer in part (a) require that α + a > 0? c Show that, with a = 1, the result in part (a) gives E(Y ) = αβ. d Use the result in part (a) to give an expression for E( √Y ). What do you need to assume about α? e Use the result in part (a) to give an expression for E(1/Y ), E(1/ √Y ), and E(1/Y 2). What do you need to assume about α in each case?

We roll a fair die repeatedly until we see the number four appear and then we stop. The outcome of the experiment is the number
muminat

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

given that we roll a fair die repeatedly until we see the number four appear and then we stop.

the number 4 can appear either in I throw, or II throw or .... indefinitely

So X = the no of throws can be from 1 to infinity

This is a discrete distribution countable.

Sample space= {1,2,.....}

b) Prob ( 4 never appears) = Prob (any other number appears in all throws)

= \frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *...\\=(\frac{5}{6} )^n

where n is the number of throws

As n tends to infinity, this becomes 0 because 5/6 is less than 1.

Hence this probability is approximately 0

Or definitely 4 will appear atleast once.
