Let the random variable Yn have a distribution that is b(n, p).

(a) Prove that Yn/n converges in probability to p. This result is one form of the weak law of large numbers.

(b) Prove that 1 − Yn/n converges in probability to 1 − p.

(c) Prove that (Yn/n)(1 − Yn/n) converges in probability to p(1 − p).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable [tex]Y_n[/tex] have a distribution thst id b(n, p)

a)

[tex]Pr[[\frac{Y_n}{n}-E[\frac{Y_n}{n}]\geq E]\leq\frac{1}{E^2}var[\frac{Y_n}{n}]\\\\=Pr[(\frac{Y_n}{n}-P)\geq E]\leq \frac{1}{n^2E^2}np(1-p)=0[/tex]

Hence, it is obtained that [tex]\frac{Y_n^P}{n}=P

B)

As mentioned in a), use chebyshevs inequality.

[tex]Pr(\frac{Y_n}{n}-E(\frac{Y_n}{n})\geq E)\leq \frac{1}{E^2}var(\frac{Y_n}{n})[/tex][tex]Pr[(1-\frac{Y_n}{n}-(1-p))\geq E]\leq \frac{1}{n^2E^2}np(1-p)=0[/tex]

Hence, it is obtained that [tex]i-\frac{Y_n^p}{n}=1-p[/tex]

C)

As it was shown that [tex]\frac{Y_n^p}{n}=p[/tex] obtained the following

[tex][\frac{Y_n}{n}]^2^p=p^2[/tex]

Difference the above

[tex]\frac{Y_n}{n}-(\frac{Y_n}{n})^2^p=p-p^2[/tex]

Hence the following expression has been obtained.

[tex]\frac{Y_n}{n}(1-\frac{Y_n}{n})^p=p(1-p)[/tex]
