Let X~ Bin(100,0.9).


For each of the following parts, construct an example showing that it is possible, or explain clearly why it is impossible.


In this problem, Y is a random variable on thesame
probability space
as X; note that X and Y arenot necessarily independent.


(a) Is it possible to have Y~ Pois(0.01) with P(X= Y ) = 1?


(b) Is it possible to have Y~ Bin(100,0.5) with P(X= Y ) = 1?


(c) Is it possible to have Y~ Bin(100,0.5) with P(X= Y ) = 1?

Let X ∼ Bin(100,0.9). For each of the following parts, construct an example showing
that it is pos
sible, or explain clearly why it is impossible.
(a) Is it possible to have Y ∼ Pois(0.01) with P(X ≥ Y ) = 1?
This is impossible since there is a nonzero chance that Y is greater than 100, whereas X
must be less than or equal to 100.
(b) Is it possible to have Y ∼ Bin(100,0.5) with P(X ≥ Y ) = 1?
This is possible since we can have a...
