(4.1.4) Let X and Y be Bernoulli random variables. Let Z = X + Y. a. Show that if X and Y cannot both be equal to 1, then Z is a Bernoulli random variable. b. Show that if X and Y cannot both be equal to 1, then pZ = pX + pY. c. Show that if X and Y can both be equal to 1, then Z is not a Bernoulli random variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

a)

X ~ Bernoulli and Y ~ Bernoulli

X + Y = Z

The possible value for Z are Z = 0 when X = 0 and Y = 0

and Z = 1 when X = 0 and Y = 1 or when X = 1 and Y = 0

If X and Y can not be both equal to 1 , then the probability mass function of the random variable Z takes on the value of 0 for any value of Z other than 0 and 1,

Therefore Z is a Bernoulli random variable

b)

If X and Y can not be both equal to  1

then,

or

and

c)

If both X = 1 and Y = 1 then Z = 2

The possible values of the random variable Z are 0, 1 and 2.

since a  Bernoulli variable should be take on only values 0 and 1 the random variable Z does not have Bernoulli distribution

10 cm

step-by-step explanation:

if the polygon is a rectangle, then the perimeter is x+x+y+y. using the values that you gave, the perimeter is 3+3+2+2=10cm.
