Please keep in mind that all homework assignments are due at the beginning of class on Fridays
and that late homework will not be accepted. Your final homework grade will be based on
your best 10 (of 12) scores.
Here are a few practice exercises over the second half of
Chapter 2 (to help prepare for the Oct. 2 midterm):
2.4-7, 2.4-11 (2.4-13 in 7th edition), 2.4-18 (2.4-20 in 7th edition),
2.5-10, 2.5-22, 2.6-4, 2.6-7, 2.6-10
Note: These problems are only over the part of the semester we haven't
covered already in earlier homework! Everyone is also responsible for the material
covered in previous homework assignments.
Here are a few practice exercises over the bivariate normal

8.3-5(a), 8.3-6, 8.3-7(a) (these are 6.9-5(a), 6.9-6, and 6.9-7(a) in the 7th edition).
Some sample R code to view bivariate normal density functions.
