for example‚ on the Central limit theorem. 1 Box Muller It would be nice to get a standard normal from a standard uniform by inverting the distribution function‚ but there is no closed form formula for this distribution 2 x function N (x) = P (X < x) = √1 π −∞ e−x /2 dx . The Box Muller method is a 2 brilliant trick to overcome this by producing two independent standard normals from two independent uniforms. It is based on the familiar trick for calculating ∞ 2 e−x I=

Suppose Babsie generated the following probability distribution: X p(x) | 5 .25 | 7 .30 | 10 .25 | 12 .05 | 15 .15 | a. Is this probability distribution discrete or continuous? Explain your reasoning. This probability distribution is continuous because it is a variable that can assume one of an infinitely large number of values within limitations. a. Calculate the expected value

samples of data from the main gate‚ of entries of vehicles for 13 days. Total number of data points is 995‚ which we believe will be an adequate representation of average vehicle inflow at any given time of the year. We then proceeded to analyse the distribution of these autos‚ day-wise‚ destination-wise‚ hour-wise‚ etc. We also did Regression Analysis‚ Hypothesis testing on our sample of data. Various factors were analyzed and inferences were drawn. GROUP 26 Page 2 QM PROJECT ANALYSIS : Given

Norte State College‚ New Visayas‚ Panabo City picar_joy@yahoo.com ABSTRACT The efficiency of Mean Square Error (MSE) of the random normal variables generated from both the Marsaglia Polar Method and Box-Muller Method was examined for small and large n with Monte-Carlo application using MATHLAB. The empirical results showed that MSE of the random normal variables using the Marsaglia Polar Method approaches zero as n becomes larger. Moreover‚ when run in MATHLAB‚ the Box-Muller method
