Question:
57. Let X and Y be the times for a randomly selected individual to complete two different tasks, and assume that (X, Y ) has a bivariate normal distribution with mX 100, sX 50, mY 25, sY 5, r .5. From statistical software we obtain P(X100, Y25)
.3333, P(X 50, Y 20) .0625, P(X 50, Y 25) .1274, and P(X 100, Y 20) .1274.
a. Find P(50 X 100, 20 Y 25).
b. Leave the other parameters the same but change the correlation to r 0 (independence). Now recompute the answer to part (a). Intuitively, why should the answer to part
(a) be larger?
