Is the conditional mean of X given Y = y a linear function of the given value, that is, can we write E(X | Y = y) = c + dy ?

  25. For continuous type random variables (X, Y), the definitions of joint probability density function (joint p.d.f.), independence of X and Y, and mathematical expectation are each analogous to those for discrete type random variables, with summation signs replaced by integral signs. The covariance between random variables X and Y is The correlation between random variables X and Y is y Consider the equation of a line y = a + bx which comes “closest” to predicting the values of the random variable Y from the random variable X in the sense that E{[Y– (a + bX)]2} is minimized. x

  26. We let k(a,b) = E{[Y – (a + bX)]2} = To minimize k(a,b) , we set the partial derivatives with respect to a and b equal to zero. (Note: This is textbook exercise 4.2-5.) k — = a k — = b (Multiply the first equation by X, subtract the resulting equation from the second equation, and solve for b. Then substitute in place of b in the first equation to solve for a.)

  28. The conditional p.m.f./p.d.f. of Y given X = x is defined to be The conditional p.m.f./p.d.f. of X given Y = y is defined to be The conditional mean of Y given X = x is defined to be The conditional variance of Y given X = x is defined to be

  29. The conditional mean of X given Y = y and the conditional variance of X given Y = y are each defined similarly. For continuous type random variables (X, Y), the definitions of conditional mean and variance are each analogous to those for discrete type random variables, with summation signs replaced by integral signs. Suppose X and Y are two discrete type random variables, and E(Y | X = x) = a + bx. Then, for each possible value of x, Multiplying each side by f1(x), Summing each side over all x,

  30. Now, multiplying each side of by x f1(x), Summing each side over all x,

  31. The two equations and are essentially the same as those in the derivation of the least squares line for predicting Y from X. This derivation is analogous for continuous type random variables with summation signs replaced by integral signs. Consequently, if E(Y | X = x) = a + bx (i.e., if E(Y | X = x) is a linear function of x), then a and b must be respectively the intercept and slope in the least squares line for predicting Y from X. Similarly, if E(X | Y = y) = c + dy (i.e., if E(X | Y = y) is a linear function of y), then c and d must be respectively the intercept and slope in the least squares line for predicting X from Y.

If the random variable X1 is defined to be the number of selected n items that are of the first type, the random variable X2 is defined to be the number of selected n items that are of the second type, and the random variable X3 is defined to be the number of selected n items that are of the third type, then the joint distribution of (X1 , X2 , X3) is called a trivariate hypergeometric distribution.

If the number of types of items is any integer k > 1 with (X1 , X2 , … , Xk) defined in the natural way, then the joint p.d.f. is called a multivariate hypergeometric distribution.

The probability of outcome 1 on each trial is p1 , the probability of outcome 2 on each trial is p2 , and the probability of outcome 3 on each trial is p3 = 1 – p1 – p2 . If the random variable X1 is defined to be the number of the n trials resulting in outcome 1, the random variable X2 is defined to be the number of the n trials resulting in outcome 2, and the random variable X3 is defined to be the number of the n trials resulting in outcome 3, then the joint distribution of (X1 , X2 , X3) is called a trinomial distribution.

If the number of outcomes is any integer k > 1 with (X1 , X2 , … , Xk) defined in the natural way, then the joint p.d.f. is called a multinomial distribution. b( , ) n pi

  48. 6. One chip is selected from each of two urns, one containing three chips labeled distinctively with the integers 1 through 3 and the other containing two chips labeled distinctively with the integers 1 and 2. The following random variables are defined: X = largest integer among the labels on the selected chips , Y = smallest integer among the labels on the selected chips . The space of (X, Y) is {(1,1) (2,1) (3,1) (2,2) (3,2)}. 1/6 1/6 2 y 1 (Note: We immediately see that X and Y cannot be independent, since the joint space is not “rectangular”.) 1/6 1/3 1/6 1 2 3 x The joint p.m.f. of (X, Y) is f(x, y) = 1 — 6 if (x, y) = (1, 1) , (3, 1) , (2, 2) , (3, 2) 1 — 3 if (x, y) = (2, 1)

  49. if x = 1 if x = 2, 3 1 / 6 The marginal p.m.f. of X is f1(x) = 1 / x The marginal p.m.f. of Y is f2(y) = (3 – y) / 3 if y = 1, 2 E(X) = 13 / 6 E(X2) = 31 / 6 Var(X) = 31 / 6 – (13 / 6)2 = 17 / 36 E(Y) = 4 / 3 E(Y2) = 2 Var(Y) = 2 – (4 / 3)2 = 2 / 9

Using the joint p.m.f., E(XY) = (1)(1)(1/6) + (3)(1)(1/6) + (2)(2)(1/6) + (3)(2)(1/6) + (2)(1)(1/3) = 3 Cov(X,Y) =  = The least squares lines for predicting Y from X is
