Statistics 100B Instructor: Nicolas Christou Multivariate normal – practice problems
EXERCISE 1
Let (X1,Y1),…,(Xn,Yn), be a random sample from a bivariate normal distribution with parameters μ1, μ2, σ12, σ2, ρ. (Note: (X1, Y1), . . . , (Xn, Yn) are independent). What is the jointdistributionof(X ̄,Y ̄)? Hint: Findthejointmomentgeneratingfunctionof(X ̄,Y ̄)and compare it to the joint moment generating function of multivariate normal distribution.
EXERCISE 2
Answer the following questions:
a. Let X1, X2, X3 be i.i.d. random variables N(0, 1). Show that Y1 = X1 + δX3 and
Y2 = X2 + δX3 have bivariate normal distribution. Find the value of δ so that the
correlation coefficient between Y1 and Y2 is ρ = 1 . 2
b. Let X and Y follow the bivariate normal distribution with parameters μ1, μ2, σ12, σ2, ρ. Show that W = X −μ1 and Q = (Y −μ2)−ρσ2(X −μ1) are independent normal
random variables.
