Let X and Y be independent random variables with X having

Chapter 12, Problem 8

(choose chapter or problem)

Let X and Y be independent random variables with X having the t distribution with five degrees of freedom and Y having the t distribution with seven degrees of freedom. We are interested in E(|X Y |). 816 Chapter 12 Simulation a. Simulate 1000 pairs of (Xi, Yi) each with the above joint distribution and estimate E(|X Y |). b. Use your 1000 simulated pairs to estimate the variance of |X Y | also. c. Based on your estimated variance, how many simulations would you need to be 99 percent confident that your estimator of E(|X Y |)is within 0.01 of the actual mean?
