Let (X1, X2) be a bivariate normal random vector with E(X1) = 1, E(X2) = 0, Var(X1) = 1, Var(X2) = 1, and correlation coefficient ρ = 12. Let U be a U(0, 1) random variable, which is independent of (X1, X2). If Z = UX1 + X2 - U√(U2 + U + 1), then which of the following statements is true?
- 1The distribution of Z is symmetric about 0.✓
- 2E(Z2) = 2
- 3Var(Z2) = 1
- 4Z and U are independent random variables.
Correct answer
The distribution of Z is symmetric about 0.
