For which of the following random variables would the use of a Normal distribution as a model be a clear error?

Business
1 answer:
Zinaida [17]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A. The number of houses that an individual owns

Explanation:

The use of normal distribution in option A would produce an error. That is the number of houses individuals own.

We know that people can own 1 house or more than 1 house or no house at all. But a person can never be said to have less than 0 houses.

Option a is going to be skewed positively. Using Normal distribution would give us an error.

A list of n items is arranged in random order; to find a requested item, they are searched sequentially until the desired item is
kompoz [17]
<span>n/2 = average number of items to search. Or more precisely (n+1)/2 I could just assert that the answer is n/2, but instead I'll prove it. Since each item has the same probability of being searched for, I'll simulate performing n searches on a list of n items and then calculate the average length of the searches. So I'll have 1 search with a length of 1, another search looks at 2, next search is 3, and so forth and so on until I have the nth search looking at n items. The total number of items looked at for those n searches will be: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + n Now if you want to find the sum of numbers from 1 to n, the formula turns out to be n(n+1)/2 And of course, the average will be that sum divided by n. So we have (n(n+1)/2)/n = (n+1)/2 = n/2 + 1/2 Most people will ignore that constant figure of 1/2 and simply say that if you're doing a linear search of an unsorted list, on average, you'll have to look at half of the list.</span>

Suppose a person's utility is only a function of their consumption of diet soda and they do not care which brand, diet coke (dc)
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: b). falls from a positive amount to another positive amount

Explanation: Given that diet coke and diet pepsi give the consumer equal level of satisfaction. Diet coke and diet pepsi are substitutes, since, the consumer does not care about consuming diet pepsi and diet coke.  For substitute goods the consumer will buy the cheapest of the two. When pdc (price of diet coke) rises but it remains less than pdp(price of diet pepsi) then the consumption of dc will decrease but it will still be above the consumption of dp. Since it is still relatively less expensive than diet pepsi. So the consumer will buy diet coke than diet pepsi, which means consumption of diet coke, dc falls from one positive amount to another positive amount.
