Preface This solutions manual provides answers for the even-numbered exercises in Probability and Statistical Inference, tenth edition, by Robert V. Hogg, Elliot A. Tanis, and Dale L. Zimmerman. Complete solutions are given for most of these exercises. You, the instructor, may decide how many of these solutions and answers you want to make available to your students. Note that the answers for the odd-numbered exercises are given in the textbook. Our hope is that this solutions manual will be helpful to each of you in your teaching.

All of the figures in this manual were generated using Maple, a computer algebra system. Most of the figures were generated and many of the solutions, especially those involving data, were solved using procedures that were written by Zaven Karian from Denison University. We thank him for providing these. These procedures are available free of charge for your use. They are available for down load at http://www.math.hope.edu/tanis/. Short descriptions of these procedures are provided on the “Maple Card.” Complete descriptions of these procedures are given in Probability and Statistics: Explorations with MAPLE, second edition, 1999, written by Zaven Karian and Elliot Tanis, published

by Prentice Hall (ISBN 0-13-021536-8). You can download a slightly revised edition of this manual at http://www.math.hope.edu/tanis/MapleManual.pdf.

We also want to acknowledge the many suggestions/corrections that were made by our accuracy checker, Kyle Siegrist.

If you find an error or wish to make a suggestion, please send them to dale-zimmerman@uiowa.edu.

These errata will be posted on http://homepage.divms.uiowa.edu/∼dzimmer/.

Probability 1.1

Properties of Probability

1.1-2 Sketch a figure and fill in the probabilities of each of the disjoint sets.

Let A = {insure more than one car}, P (A) = 0.85.

Let B = {insure a sports car}, P (B) = 0.23.

Let C = {insure exactly one car}, P (C) = 0.15.

It is also given that P (A ∩ B) = 0.17. Since A ∩ C = φ, P (A ∩ C) = 0. It follows that

P (A ∩ B ∩ C 0 ) = 0.17. Thus P (A0 ∩ B ∩ C 0 ) = 0.06 and P (B 0 ∩ C) = 0.09.

1.1-6 (a) P (A ∪ B) = 0.5 + 0.6 − 0.4 = 0.7; (b)

A = (A ∩ B 0 ) ∪ (A ∩ B) P (A) = P (A ∩ B 0 ) + P (A ∩ B) 0.5 = P (A ∩ B 0 ) + 0.4 0 P (A ∩ B ) = 0.1;

(c) P (A0 ∪ B 0 ) = P [(A ∩ B)0 ] = 1 − P (A ∩ B) = 1 − 0.4 = 0.6.

1.1-8 Let A ={lab work done}, B ={referral to a specialist}, P (A) = 0.41, P (B) = 0.53, P ([A ∪ B]0 ) = 0.21.

P (A ∪ B) = P (A) + P (B) − P (A ∩ B) 0.79 = 0.41 + 0.53 − P (A ∩ B) P (A ∩ B) = 0.41 + 0.53 − 0.79 = 0.15.

which is the pdf of an F (r2 , r1 ) distribution.

You could also note by Theorem 5.2-1 that the F (r1 , r2 ) distribution of W is the distribution of (U/r1 )/(V /r2 ) where U and V are independent chi-square variables with r1 and r2 degrees of freedom, respectively. It follows that 1/W is the distribution of (V /r 2 )/(U/r1 ).

By the same theorem, this is the F (r2 , r1 ) distribution.

5.2-17 The pdf of W is f (w) =

(r1 /r2 )r1 /2 Γ[(r1 + r2 )/2]wr1 /2−1 . Γ(r1 /2)Γ(r2 /2)[1 + (r1 w/r2 )](r1 +r2 )/2

Let α = r1 /2 and β = r2 /2. Then the pdf becomes f (w) =

Maximum Likelihood Estimation

6.4–2 The likelihood function is " n # · ¸n/2 X 1 2 L(θ) = exp − (xi − µ) /2θ , 2πθ i=1

The logarithm of the likelihood function is n n n 1 X ln L(θ) = − (ln 2π) − (ln θ) − (xi − µ)2 .

Setting the first derivative equal to zero and solving for θ yields d ln L(θ) dθ

θb =

To see that θb is an unbiased estimator of θ, note that à ! n σ2 σ 2 X (Xi − µ)2 b E(θ) = E = · n = σ2, n n i=1 σ2

since (Xi − µ)2 /σ 2 is χ2 (1) and hence the expected value of each of the n summands is equal to 1.

For the unbiased property, it could also be noted that θb is the sample mean from a random sample of size n from the distribution of (X − µ)2 . The sample mean is always an unbiased estimator of the distribution mean, which in this case is σ 2 .

(c) (i) We first find i and j so that P (Yi < π0.25 < Yj ) ≈ 0.95. Let the distribution of W be b(81, 0.25). Then P (Yi < π0.25 < Yj ) = P (i ≤ W ≤ j − 1) µ ¶ i − 0.5 − 20.25 j − 1 + 0.5 − 20.25 √ √ ≈ P ≤Z≤ .

falls near the center of this interval. So a 94.53% confidence interval for π 0.25 is (y13 = 21.0, y28 = 21.3); (ii) Let the distribution of W be b(81, 0.5). Then = P (i ≤ W ≤ 81 − i) µ ¶ i − 0.5 − 40.5 81 − i + 0.5 − 40.5 √ √ ≈ P ≤Z≤ .

P (Yi < π0.5 < Y82−i )

If

i − 41 = −1.96, 4.5

then i = 32.18 so let i = 32. Also 81 − i − 40 = 1.96 4.5 implies that i = 32. Furthermore P (Y32 < π0.5 < Y50 ) = P (32 ≤ W ≤ 49) ≈ 0.9544.

So an approximate 95.44% confidence interval for π0.5 is (y32 = 21.4, y50 = 21.6); (iii) Similar to part (a), P (Y54 < π0.75 < Y69 ) ≈ 0.9453. Thus a 94.53% confidence interval for π0.75 is (y54 = 21.6, y69 = 21.8).

7.5–8 A 95.86% confidence interval for m is (y6 = 14.60, y15 = 16.20). = P (b(25, 0.5) ≤ 15) − P (b(25, 0.5) ≤ 8) = 0.8852 − 0.0539 = 0.8313; (b) Want P (Yr < π0.90 ) ≥ 0.95, that is, P (b(25, 0.9) ≥ r) ≥ 0.95. Now,

7.5–10 (a) P (Y9 < π0.50 < Y16 )

P (b(25, 0.9) ≥ 21) = 0.9020,

and

P (b(25, 0.9) ≥ 20) = 0.9666.

So the desired r is 20, and y20 = 190, and the desired interval is [190, ∞). Because this interval straddles the water quality standard, it does not provide strong evidence of a violation.

9.1–6 Using Table II in Appendix B with p = 0.30, the hypothesized probabilities are p 0 = P (X = 0) = 0.343, p1 = P (X = 1) = 0.441, p2 = P (X = 2) = 0.189, p3 = P (X = 3) = 0.027. Thus the respective expected values are 68.6, 88.2, 37.8, and 5.4. The value of the chi-square goodness of fit statistic is: q

(95 − 88.2)2 (38 − 37.8)2 (10 − 5.4)2 (57 − 68.6)2 + + + 68.6 88.2 37.8 5.4

= 6.405 < 7.815 = χ20.05 (3).

Do not reject the hypothesis that X is b(3, 0.30) at a 5% significance level. Limits for the p-value are 0.05 < p-value < 0.10 because χ20.10 (3) = 6.251 < 6.405 < χ20.05 (3) = 7.815.

We find that pb = 201/600 = 0.335. Thus a 95% confidence interval for p is p 0.335 ± 1.96 (0.335)(0.665)/600 or [0.297, 0.373].

The pennies that were used were minted 1998 or earlier. See Figure 9.1-6. Repeat this experiment with similar pennies or with newer pennies and compare your results with those obtained by these students.

Since t1 = 4.299 > 2.306, we reject H0 .
