(a) only one observation
(b) two observations
(c) only daily observations
(d) observations for a sufficiently long time (Write the correct answer)

v) A random variable X is such that P(X = 1) = P(X = 0) = 1/2 . What is the value of P(X > 0) ?

vi) If a discrete variable assumes values 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 with equal probabilities then its probability mass function is given by 0, otherwise …………., if, x 5,6,7,8,9,10 f(x) (Fill in the blank)

In case of a continuous random variable X P(X = 2.22) = …………………. (Fill in the blank)

vii) For a binomial variable X E(X) < Var (X). (Write true or false)
viii) If the parameter of a Poisson distribution is 7.83 then its mode is …………… (Fill in the blank)

ix) If a digit is taken from a random number series, the probability that it is 9 and the probability that it is not 9 are not equal. (Write true or false)
OR,
Can any digit repeat in a random number series ?

x) If the observed values of a sample are given, the value of a statistic becomes fixed.

GROUP – B :
2. i) When only two attributes A and B having two forms each are considered, how are the marginal frequencies and the total frequency related ?

ii) Define bivariate data with a suitable example.
OR,
When are two variables said to be positively correlated ?

iii) Show the case when the value of Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient will be +1.
OR,
What do you mean by rank correlation ?

iv) If for a binomial distribution m = 10 and p = 13/5 then what is the value of the coefficient of variation ?
OR,
If for a binomial distribution the expected value is 4 and variance is 3, what are the values of its parameters ?

v) Show that a normal distribution is symmetric about its mean.

GROUP – C :
Find the first order raw moment of the probability distribution having density function, given by f(x) ={e – X/e}
ii) In the 2 x 2 ease of two attributes A and B discuss the cases of association. OR, Draw scatter diagrams in cases of perfect correlation between two variables.

iii) If the bases and scales of two correlated variables are changed, determine the effect on correlation coefficient. OR, If two variables x1 and x2 have a common variance and correlation coefficient r= 0, express r in terms of q so that x1 + 2×2 and x1 + x2 (q = 1) become uncorrelated.

Ans: Consider the pair of values (x1, y1), (x2, y2), ….. (xn, yn) on the variables (x, y) Hence numerical value of the correlation coefficient remains unaltered with the change of base & scale.

OR,
State the disadvantages of determining trend by the method of moving averages.

OR

vii) Determine the median of a uniform (a, ß) distribution.
OR
Determine the variance of a uniform (a, ß) distribution.

viii)If a Poisson variable X is such that 2P = (X = 5) = P(X = 6) then what is the value of P (X > 0) OR, If a binomial (10, p) variable X is such that P(X = 5) = P(X = 6) then what is the value of p ?
ix) In case of fitting a binomial distribution to a frequency distribution of a variable X, how will you estimate p and use it to find out an estimate of P(X = x) ?
x) Describe the process of selecting 3 boys from a group of 10 boys by using a random number series.
